Day 29 - Venice to Vienna


A big day of travelling today – over 600km. So it was goodbye to Italy and hello Austria as we lunched in Velden, a small village on a picturesque lake.
 
 
It was also hello cold weather with a top of 5°C but we are rugged up so it is fine. I actually have handed all my warm thermals to Carly as they are just way too hot for me when I am on the bus or inside – must be menopause kicking in...
 
 
We have had Wienner Schnitzel and Apple Strudel today so we are really getting in the spirit of things gastronomically anyway. I also made a point of listening to The Sound of Music on my IPod on the way in – only a few more days and we’ll be in Salzburg!!! We arrived in Vienna at about 5.45pm, went down for a light dinner at 7pm and generally rested up. We are looking forward to a big day tomorrow and I’ve got a shocking cold so an early night seemed like a good idea.
