Floods near my house...

Good afternoon Hive community,

A lot has happened since my last post 10 days ago. There was a Hivefest going on for the past couple of days. Hope all the participants enjoyed. Hopefully, the day when I will attend one will come as well. Too bad that organisers didn’t choose Ljubljana as a venue. But maybe they will some time in the future as our city is really beautiful and like a hidden gem so I would love to share it with our lovely community.
Well in between I went to the seaside with my family as well. We really had a great time! Just relaxing a bit. Taking it easy, no hurry. Talking, spending time together and laughing as much as possible. That is my recipe and this time it worked.
Our holiday ended just in time as we came back home in rain. And it was not just a rainy day, but couple of days of strong thunderstorms and non stop rain. Terrible weather. There was a new all time record set for most precipitation in a day. So at the morning we were swimming in the sea and enjoying sunshine, couple of hours later we were swimming in puddles, or even say newly created lakes. We are living at the edge of marsh, or how could I best describe it. So when there is heavy rain, it can get a bit ugly, or nice when it ends well for all. And I will show you just that today. After a bit of fear for a few days, sun came up. As they say, after every rain there comes the sun. That was also true in our case. So we went walking around and sure I had to take some photos.
It is hard for you to imagine how it is without all the water, but on normal day (99% of time) there are fields without any water standing. Well it ended well and now water level is already much smaller and we got some spectacular landscape!
We were joking with neighbours that we now own lakeside villas and our real estate value bumped due to exclusive location.

Enjoy the view from the safe distance.

I am a water loving person, so I enjoyed the views, especially when sun came up.
Well holiday is already behind me, so time for new challenges in our everyday life.
Take care!

It feels very clean and quiet.I feel something to experience, something to think, something to say deeply from these potos in a calm environment.

You are right, it looks calm. It was totally opposite picture couple of hours before these photos were taken. But at the end, we were lucky enought to enjoy the calmness.

Great weather, haha. It turned out like that yes, but many neighbours went to the firefighters to get anti flooding protection bags, etc.
But like I said, there comes the sun after every rain and in this case it offered great reflections.

haha, even so the water had receded, and made for a great view.
I think there must be a large channel to accommodate the heavy rain.

Thanks! I like our home and surrounding area as well.
But it is not always that nice, since there is no water on normal day.

Today in the morning we had only 3 degrees, but it will be late summer in the afternoon with 20 degrees.

Thank you for the compliment!
Jap, 4th from the right is mine.
And there is no water around, that was one time occasion when our houses were almost (still far away) flooded.

Wow! :) Amazing house in amazing location. I mean even without the extra water :D Is it still considered Ljubljana suburbs or is it in the countryside already?

Well, hard to say. I would say no...
Some are taking Ljubljana suburbs with Vrhnika (bigger city a bit farther from Ljubljana than my house) included, other stops with Brezovica which is the closest municipality from Ljubljana in my direction. There is one other smaller municipality in between and then my house belongs to Vrhnika.
We are about 10 minutes drive to Ljubljana municipality, 20 to the city centre.

Well, it is the best to see it yourself when you will come by. Be sure I will be waiting on you with my doors open.

Excess water can be scary, fortunately it sounds like homes never got flooded out the marsh field held the water back enough to soak away.

Beautiful photography with reflections and lighting, making for different memories to keep and show people as proof should they not believe you.

!LUV to the family!
