Return to Brand, Austria

We left the Tirol mountains this morning under a stunning blue sky on a beautiful sunny day. It would have been nice to stay longer, maybe take a gondola ride up the mountain or enjoy a scenic hike.

A few days ago, we received a note from the hotel in Brand, Austria, where we stayed a week ago, informing us that we had left behind some clothes and a jacket in our room. It’s hard to believe, as we usually double-check everything before leaving, but things happen! So, we decided to make a reservation at the same hotel in Brand on our way back to Wally and Marli in Thurgau, Switzerland.

Tonight, we are excited to dine at the same restaurant where we enjoyed a fantastic dish of smoked Norwegian salmon.

The drive to Brand took nearly four hours. As we neared the Brenner Pass, rain from Germany swept in, dampening the journey, and by the time we crossed the Arlberg Pass, the rain had turned to wet snow.もっと詳しく
