Had bread and jam for breakfast. The clothes weren't dry so I had to wait until noon before leaving. Had a good meal of potatoes, steak, salad and coffee before leaving Celje. Cycled hard and fast to get to Ljubljana before dark. Arrived at 4:30. Went to Tea's dorm but she wasn't in. Waited awhile and asked some others where I could sleep tonight. One boy invited me to sleep in his room. We walked around downtown, the largest city in Yugoslavia, before dinner.A good package of French Fries costs 8 cents. We had a beer downtown for 10 cents and then went to the cafeteria. There two very long and thick lines, but Martin took me up to the front. That's where the line seemed to form. For 9 cents we had a piece of dark bread, an Italian salad, a big plate of potato and hamburger mash, and a cup of tea. As we were leaving I noticed a bar in the student union. I asked him what the minimum age for drinking was. He impressed upon me that there wasn't an age limit on liquor or beer by buying me a shot of vodka for 12 cents. With hot meals for 9 cents and drinks at 12 cents I could break even in this country. The dorm I'm in tonight cost me nothing. Watched TV and tried to see Tea before retiring but she's still out.
Mileage: Celje to Ljubljana 75 km.
No expenses
