Melk to Greis and the change.
Last night was a carbon copy of our stormy night at Lake Balaton. The wind began to blow in strong gusts and then the rain came. By morning the rain had stopped but the wind continued and again it was not in our favor.
We bundled up and took off along the river which unfortunately acted as a wind tunnel. The going was slow but then again we could be back home working. The sun tried to peak out from time to time but the clouds won out today. We saw that the temperature only reached 15 degrees celsius. We stayed on the south side of the river and enjoyed the views of all the small villages sitting on the river with the hills behind them. We decided to call it a day after 50 km's because it looked as if it might rain again. With the tent set up and us cleaned up we walked the cobblestone streets of town and bought food for dinner. We finally found gas for the stove so we cooked tonight. It takes quite a while to boil water so we may have to ditch the stove or keep it and a bit of food to cook in case of an emergency. They don't seem to have "just add water" pancake mix. I think we need to tell Krusteze to look into the European market. We write tonight in the warmth of the campground bar. Wha!
t happened to spring?
