Up early to give DD a hand taking down the Monster tent and fridges as the event ends today. DD locked the key in the car up at the resort, so while waiting for the insurance company to send someone, I had a look around town. I found some hiking boots on sale for 99 euros. I grabbed them since I'd tried on the newer model of the same boots back home and they were 170 pounds. Glad to get some boots as hiking in Switzerland with just trailrunners was no good. I hurt my ankle in January and it didn't heal properly so the last thing I need is to twist it and have no ankle support. And I'll be doing more hiking in Slovenia.
DD had to work more in teh afternoon so I borrowed his fancy bike and headed into the mountains. Well, I say headed into the moutnains, but I really didnt go too far. These Austrian mountains are crazt steep. I almost had a heart attack, so just found a pub after a couple of hours.
Later, I said goodbye to DD and Froni, wonderful hosts that they were, and caught my train to Germany. I grabbed some dinner and beers from the supermarket at the train station in Innsbruck. The supermarket was well stocked and reasonaly priced. I got a decent Schnizel sandwich and great salad for only 4 euros and the beers were cheap too.
I drank alone on the train as most of the passengers seemed to be a youth group traveling together. I had my laptop so watched a TV show called The IT Crowd that Froni gave me. It's a British show, but I'd never heard of it. It's really hilarious and had me laughing aloud much to the amusement of the others in the train car.
I got into Munich a little late, but Sungshin was waiting for me. We had to take two connecting trains to get to her village, but had an hour to kill so walked around Munich and finished off the beers I had. We then caught the trains and then had a one hour walk. Wow, really a village. We had to walk along little roads lined with corn and barley fields in the starlight. It was quite nice, but tiring. It was elevenish when we arrived at the home where she works as an au pair. The family were already sleeping so we just went to bed too.
