Ice cream!

I seldom buy ice creams but I found that especially in Koper, the shops that sell ice creams are strongly mouthwatering for ice cream lovers! Look at this one! If I had not restrained myself, I might have taken dozens of such photos but one is enough!

just sit in a bar by the coast an have a tiny cappuccino - served in a glass - Koper got this from Trieste, don't search fot it in Ljubljana...
an alternative is have a cup of nice local wine - the region is well known for the red wine refošk/refosko, and the white one "malvazija". you can have it in all bars, but for special ones i suggest the site: http://refosk.obala.net/
"osmica" is where you get new wine in oct/nov, several cellars: http://www.osmice.info/slo/

The location

Just a map of Slovenia so that you know where Koper is situated.
There are buses every 20 minutes to Izola, Strunjan, Piran & Portoroz.
Every 40 minutes on the weekends.
About 17 buses a day back & forth from Trieste in Italy. None on Sunday.
Koper is a good hub to explore Croatian Istria.

So get yourself some skates and follow the coastline to get views like this...

I really don't know if it is a local custom or not, but if you happen to visit Koper (as I did), don't miss the sunset, at least, the one I was lucky to see was fantastic.
