Traveler Wow that's insane why is there one there, and where abouts is it?!
Traveler It was in service station fairly near Innsbruck, just looks cool because of the clouds haha
Traveler Many, many years ago (before you were born), Joanna and I had a horrendous journey driving over an Alpine pass in thick fog. It took many hours, because we had to go so slowly, and we were ravenous. We happened on a Mac Donald's, - it was like a miracle. I don't think I've had a Mc D's since though...
Traveler Haha I'm quite guilty of a McDonalds just for the cheap guarantee of a meal, but yes that doesn't sound like an awful lot of fun! I have memories of my dad driving our motor home through twisty winding roads in awful conditions in places like the pyrenees. Can take great patience in the mountains sometimes!
