Tuesday (Part Deux)
... a break so took a moinor road for a while which ran along a river for most of its length. Very nice it was too. Over one of the tributary streams they built a brand new covered bridge, the only one we've seen, and luckily we just reached it as a bit of a rain shower swept overhead. Lucky or what....
From here we decided to start looking for a bed & eventually found one at the Tegernsee. Dinner last night, for those of you with an interest ...

Time to hand in the keys
... my gear around on my back. For 35 days Vinny had carried our bags around for us, without complaint, in relative comfort and safety. Thanks for the good times! Now, here are a few "Top 5" lists to sum up the greatest road trip ever undertaken... Most annoying aspects of living in a shoebox with 3 other people: 5. Not much room in there. Considering one member was easily the largest man in the world, it was no surprise that we were constantly hopping in and out ...
