| We loved the old caravan at Natterer - but reckoned we'd need to be away for a year at least if we were to tour Italy in it! |
We travelled through Germany using their excellent motorways and crossed into Austria and began the climb into the Alps. Heavy rain accompanied us now but fortunately after we crossed the first set of mountains the weather took a better turn and we ended up at our campsite with dry ground around us. We arrived very tired at a place called Nattere - it was a holiday venue surrounded by high mountains and lakes and was kept impeccably.

| We both had a fish meal in the restaurant there (I took the opportunity
to eat fish species I used to catch as a child) and fell into bed
exhausted. |
The mountains look great, John. A Romany caravan? That's going to take an awful long time to get to Italy.Sardinia...?
ReplyDeleteOne can still hire a Romany caravan and horse for a week or two in Ireland, I believe Tony. Not always as straightforward as hiring a car I gather; some of the horses can be very recalcitrant. Makes for a 'different' kind of holiday!!
ReplyDeleteJust heard recently about your travel blog from Tony. And then I got your email today. I will look forward to following the rest of your blog. Enjoy your travels!
ReplyDeleteCheers, Clive. So far, so good!
