We like Austria, we do. People are very friendly. In stark contrast to the Czech Republic, we are receiving lots of greetings, smiles and waves. When we set out to plan our trip and our highlighter came across Austria, we were never really interested in spending too much time there, but the highlighter traced a line that lasted for two weeks, in theory, but at our established limit of 70 km a day with or without climbs, the journey through Austira and its large mountains would last something like three weeks. Sorry, Herr Austria, but we are heading for Frau Slovenia, sooner than we had told you.
