Forest thaw
... was overcast, as predicted by the weather forecast. It certainly wasn't cold and the final few kilometers along the lake to the south of Achensee turned into a gentle stroll. A welcome beer in a village cafe and ice cream for the weak-willed. Back to the hotel after a 7-8 miles' walk and a welcome afternoon snooze. Saunas look to be on the agenda again as I write - you'll have to wait for the outcome of ...

Lunch back in our hotel room, and Helen and Steph shot out for another sauna, steam and shower. Never seen either of 'em move so fast. Never knew men's bottoms (front or back) were so important! S'pose Barry and I will have to play Cribbage ...
It's snow time
Sunday 28 October Achenkirch 3-4" of snow overnight leaving a Christmassy landscape. After a home-made breakfast we ventured out of the hotel and headed off into the village centre of Achenkirch, 2 kms down the main road. The roads were clear, but no obvious sign of footpaths under the snow. We finally picked up a local road that led us into the village. Achenkirch is very small and has few shops or cafés, just a supermarket on the edge of the village and a goodly ...
