Our
last day in Austria, tomorrow we set off for France by Friday.
We
took the Goldried gondola up above Matrei – took 15 minutes to get
us to 2156m, would take 2 hours to walk up!
A
lazy day today, sun was shining despite a thunder, lightning and
hailstones couple of hours in the night.
We
met a couple from Shrewsbury on way up and chatted and they went on
ahead, we had lunch mindful of the black clouds gathering. Almost at
the top of our highest point
we
decided to turn back, thunder crashing round and echoing through the
mountains and then the rain but not as much as we expected. Back down
on the gondola we met up with couple again and they came back to ours
for drinks.
So
sad to be leaving this stunning area but more adventures await. Good
news Roy got car sorted this morning at the Nissan in Lienz for the
princely sum of 381 Euros. We're good to go tomorrow!
ENDLESS ALPEN ROSE
