Thursday Doors 15/2/24: Along the Ljubljanica 1.

The Ljubljanica is the river that flows through Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia, my city of birth. Last April, during our Easter week visit, I walked along the river and clicked at everything that surprised me. Some of it was doors.

I loved how spring made itself felt and seen. I loved the church that I had never noticed in all my 40+ years living in the city. I loved various windows and street signs, colours and shapes, the breeze and the flow. I loved seeing my exact place of birth, the city’s main maternity hospital. I loved the painted walls and even asked a security guy to move a little to the right unless he wished to be in the frame, which is not something I often do.

My coffee brand and a promising entrance. And spring!

A music school. “Across the bridge to musical meadows.”

The music school has a surprisingly contemporary door.

Especially considering its neighbour. It’s St. Thérèse of Lisieux Parish Church (Cerkev sv. Terezije deteta Jezusa).

Built in 1938, the bell tower and portal added in 1971.

I’m pretty sure I never walked past it before. Or I’d remember this door.

There’s more.

Three doors! Almost the same age as I.

A wider view.

The front view.

A gate and a goal.

Mini Bus of Joy.

A pretty house across the river.

I love this colour scheme.

Srečko Kosovel St. Patti Smith recited one of his poems at her 2019 Trieste concert.

By the Ljubljanica. Is that a magnolia tree?

This is how it went. Crow relative alert bottom left.

Also across the river: the maternity hospital.

This is where I removed the security guy. “Mornings are you and I.”

A certain politician comes to mind. To be continued.
