Start of our 8-day Road Trip

This morning, we bid farewell to our hiking friends and embarked on our 8-day road trip.

Our first stop was Innsbruck, where we explored the Swarovski Visitor Center and exhibition. It was fascinating to see the various creative uses of glass and man-made crystals. (Check out the pictures below!)

As rain clouds rolled in, we decided to head towards the Brenner Pass and find a place to stay for the night. Google Maps led us to Gasthof und Pension Schützenwirt in Steinach.

Our double room in this beautifully renovated farmhouse was simple but charming. For dinner, I had a delicious beef goulash, while the mixed salad, made with fresh ingredients straight from the farm’s vegetable garden, was a real treat. Ursula opted for a classic Wiener Schnitzel with Pommes.

The evening became even more memorable when the restaurant owner, Mr. Klotz, joined us at our table. We shared stories from our lives, making for a delightful and enriching conversation.

Tomorrow, despite the forecasted rain, we’ll be making our way towards South Tirol and the Dolomites. Adventure continues!Okumaya devam et
