Today is more or less the middle of the Euro-tour. And what an eventful day it was! And by eventful, I mean total disaster..
Contrary to the perfect photogenic weather from yesterday, it was raining cats and dogs and other domesticated animals.
But of course that only happened in the middle of the day. Instead, the morning was a little drizzle that so slyly invited tourists and other such folk to savour the beautiful location of the town of Hallstatt, frequently known as the most beautiful place in the world.
The writer would have made it there, if it weren’t for the fact that he left his Interrail-Ticket in his other bag. The post office also enticed him to end a postcard, which delayed the other travellers in such a way
that they missed the first train there by 5 minutes, after making also a wrong turn into the main train station as it is under renovation.
After that, the writer took a bus back, only to forget also the room key, prompting him to head back and having to get the key and return to the hostel. By the time he arrived, the writer had 5 minutes to appear at the train station. This is indeed not one of “my favourite things”
So “How do you solve a problem” like that? I could but ask the others to go ahead whilst I stayed in Salzburg. Later on, after a conversation with the folks at home,
as well as some wiki work, I decided to leap over to the small village nearby.
So, what is the name of this village. Well, it is famous for ONE thing:
As this is a hard one, here is a clue: XXXrnXXXX
Fill in the Xs!
Also, you may have to download the picture to zoom in to see what it is.
n.b.: I seriously think there is something in the water of the Salzach. Why so many music geniuses?!
