Swimming in Lake Bled

After touring the Bled castle today, we spent most of the rest of the day enjoying the lake. Clare was the photographer this afternoon, and thus not pictured 🙁 The water was a bit cold, but amazingly clean and clear, and definitely swimmable. We rented a stand up paddleboard for awhile, which Meg and I very much enjoyed. Spencer and I tried to swim out to the island near the end, but I could only make it about 2/3 of the way. He probably could have made it the whole way. I don’t think I have ever swum in a more picturesque setting.
