We started the day by walking to the castle. On the way we passed this beautiful church. It was Sunday and Mass was going on. The church is called the Church of St. Martin.
We then climbed over 300 steps to Bled Castle.
When we got into the castle there was a reinactment going on of dancing, sword fighting and fire eating.
Only a few rooms of the castle remain but we were able to see the chapel and several exhibition halls.
And we found some spectacular views of the lake.
After visiting the castle, we walked into town to eat lunch (traditional Slovenian hot dogs with sauerkraut, mayonnaise, and sweet barbecue sauce) at the Christmas market and to feed the ducks.
After lunch, we took a local gondola boat to the beautiful island on the lake.
And the view of town from the island.
