Dag 6
Elfer and Stubay
18. juni 2023, Østrig ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C
Best day (weather-wise) yet. Another stunning gondola ride, this time on our local mountain. A little later than planned to our morning tea location: a combination of the local marching band (see last night) and a pretty steep scramble up to the cafe. Home made Apfelstrudel provided the necessary fuel to get us home again against a backdrop of dozens of paragliders taking advantage of the breathtaking scenery. After lunch we took advantage of the Stubai Super Pass and went to the Stubay pools. Futuristic wristbands impressed us all, but seemed to have oddly also taken the place of the lifeguards.. Great pools and slides meant two hours passed quickly. All were starving so we stopped off in town (again, transported by our regular bus driver) for pizza, chicken and kasespatzle. Yum.Læs mere

Another awesome Gondola. Slightly terrifying view of the toboggan run.... Stunning waterpark at the station. Girls traversing the lake (slowly). Abi's mate. Boys hydroengineering! Delicious lunch, why haven't cheese dumplings taken over the world? Apfelstrudel big hit.. Darf ich Wasser Haben bitte (Benny) Amazing slide, Henry making friends. Hartley's has nothing on the toboggan health and safety. Mental. Bus home. Football, swimming races and ping pong. Traditional band in town (200). Ice cream...Læs mere

Familienhaus Fernau
15. juni 2023, Østrig ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C
Fantastiche! After a bruising bus ride from Innsbruck (not for me, just the poor chap who I whacked with my backpack getting the cases down from the luggage shelf) we arrived at our holiday house. Quirky, quiet and quintessentially Austrian with stuffed animals aplenty. Ruby (on alarmingly good behaviour) accompanied me to the local supermarket where we were set upon by a couple of locals looking to practise their German language skills on us. A tad bizarre. Spaghetti for dinner for all but Benny (end stage tired) and remarkable for the fact that Ruby sat through the WHOLE dinner regaling us with Peppa Pig stories.... I know.... The Stubai valley is simply beautiful and we're all looking forward to exploring tomorrow.Læs mere

Bregenz Lido
15. juni 2023, Østrig ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C
Wow. Just wow. Included in our Jufa hotel rate was a free entry to the local Lido. Such a boon; with pools, slides, diving boards and access to the lake. The boys were still a little under the weather, but the girls and I braved the chilly waters and swam out to the pontoon. The main pool was a metal box - very cool. A great way to shake off the final throws of jetlag before the next train journey. Far less crowded, the ride to Innsbruck was extraordinary. Wonderful vistas with snow capped mountains. Can't work out why the whole world wouldn't want to live here.Læs mere

Fruhstuck
15. juni 2023, Østrig ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C
Wow. Despite Benny ruining my sleep with his bed theft, I felt awake enough to go for a run at sunrise... Boys decided to stay and watch Dino Ranch (auf Deutsch) instead. The lake was amazing - already bustling with swimmers, rowers and cyclists. E-bikes seem popular amongst all ages (unlike helmets). Jogged to Germany before turning around, sadly a pulled calf - 10 days out from Roth - put a dampener on the outing. Breakfast was spectacular, I've never seen Ruby so excited.... Benny had TEN croissants and Henry did well trying a number of new foods (see photos). It was a lovely way to start day 2 after an exhausting journey yesterday - looks like we're off for a swim now before the train ride into the Tirol.Læs mere

Bregenz
14. juni 2023, Østrig ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C
What a cracking spot. Cyclists everywhere and a lake that looks too good to be true on a day like today. Sadly, everyone is exhausted so after dinner it's bedtime. The walk back from the Zeppelin restaurant included seeing the Seebuhne; I'm still trying to decide whether Henry is old enough to watch the Bond film so famously set there. (Strangely, I watched a reply of the Theroux / Dench interview on the plane this morning - a lovely piece of TV.) A little taken aback by just how much graffiti spoils the town, maybe there's more to living here than meets the eye?! And the smoking / e-biking paradox needs explaining to me. Local Bregenz soccer team were playing tonight - hats off to the stadium announcer who did his best to rouse the 50 or so souls watching. I think the usual crows were all sipping beers on the waterfront. Absolute bliss.Læs mere

London!!!
14. juni 2023, England ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C
Finally we make it to the UK, albeit just for a couple of hours. Heathrow is big, busy and staggeringly multicultural. Doesn't have a Subway much to Ruby's disgust. Discoverer that Naomi doesn't like and never has liked almond croissants (relatively short-lived it turns out...) Henry took some great snaps as we flew in, looks like it's going to be a beautiful day here. Next up, Zurich!Læs mere

Spectacularly clean, efficient and boring. Don't get me wrong, smart shopping centre (aside from the slightly officious man escorting us away from the Macca's only seats) and lovely park area right next to the airport but so clinical. Still, we managed to let 4 hours drift by with ease before catching the train to Bregenz. As chance would have it, the guy from the food court's brother was the conductor on the train! Amazing coincidence I presume. Giant pretzels aside, no-one really felt like much to eat, saving ourselves for a feast when we get to Bregenz. Wonderful summery weather so far...Læs mere

Singapore Baby!
14. juni 2023, Østrig ⋅ 🌙 10 °C
Ok, so I thought the troops were delicate in Sydney. Jeez. Fortunately Burger King to the rescue (ignore my Macca's comments from yesterday). 30 mins and 22 chicken nuggets later (relative) peace restored ready for leg 2. Just the 45 mins stopover in Singapore, definitely long enough. For the second time today, Abi and I managed to set off the body scanners, I can only assume that it's the guns. Flying visit from Kofi Annan helped broker the new seating arrangements, Ruby kindly giving up her window seat for H Man. Inevitable red wine -v- trousers incident after take-off, a less direct consequence of drinking alcohol I guess. Highlight of the flight so far; Ruby applying the band-aid theorem to seat reclining. Priceless. Benny tracked us across the skies, aided by how Worldle knowledge. Everyone looking refreshed now - ready for the final flight to Zurich.Læs mere
