Travel to Austria, Carinthia, Villach.



After a fairly peaceful night apart from some motorway noise we headed off in the direction of Munich and the southerly ring road. A road that neither of us had travelled before. We fed the resident ducks before we left and tried the showers which were excellent. Clean and tidy and functional. The day was still dull but it wasnt raining yet.

A few miles down the road it started again. Just a sprinkling but enough to make us think yet again will the damn wet stuff never stop. The skies were grey and full of clouds which threatened more rain. Deer grazed in the fields alongside the autobahn oblivious of the early morning traffic . At 9 the sun broke through. Cars raced past as we skirted Munich and headed for Lake Chiemsee. The roadsides full of bright buttercup yellow Marsh Marigolds and cowslips. We passed a roadside sign that proudly proclaimed the region was the home region of Pope Benedict the retired pope now living in retirement.
