He could have, he just didn’t

Predjamski grad, wide

Predjamski grad, “Castle in front of cave”, is one of Slovenia’s great cultural treasures and a truly dramatic example of military architecture. It is also heavily touristed and on a recent gorgeous July day we had plenty of company as we crawled through the castle and the caves behind and beneath it.

So we were pleasantly surprised that, despite ample audience and previous displays in the past few weeks, Adam did not whip down his pants.

His opportunity for a brazen-public-urination-hat-trick foregone!

Despite this unexpected lack of flying wee, the maintenance of the two boys did prevent us from taking many pictures. A pity, as the castle/cave integration is so fascinating. If the pictures above pique your interest, you can get the castle’s story along with some great high dynamic range pictures, here on Flickr.

Thanks to Michael Manske for pointing me to the Flickr pictures, and to JumpinJack for producing them.

  1. That’s a pretty cool story that JumpinJack wrote up. I love those tales of undefeated madmen and how they are eventually defeated.
