Day 57 Wet miserable, but to Bad Tolz..

Wednesday 16/05/2018 (14 SZ) Karma Bavaria Schliersee Room 210

Today we had no real plans other than getting the car looked at as it has been having a strong burning smelly issues with strong oil smells or something after going up hills and under a heavy load...

So off to Hausham the next village over from us.... this was to see the Renault dealer to see if they could look at it... the day is wet and miserable... so no getting out of the car to look around.

Before we left we had a funny call from Mum and Dad, the funny thing is Dad was driving so when I called back he had to pull over so we could talk... but he must have hit his off button again so after a few words we lost them again... ohh dear what are we to do with them... so I send a msg to tell him we will try tomorrow morning again.... see how we go with that...

Anyway back to the car, once we get there I sit in the car, poor John has to negotiate the language barrier which is an issue when you are trying to tell them the problem and you can’t speak German or they english... anyway he managed but at the end of it... no they couldn’t help as they were busy today, try Bad Tolz...

So John gets into the car and we google Renault service centres, it says there is one at Tegernsee, which is closer than Bad Tolz, so off we go but once there it’s a Mercedes service centre, the girl there who also didn’t speak much English gave a John another name and so off we head to some out of the way back track looking fir this service centre... when we arrive it’s a farm... hmmmm this doesn’t look right, we check the Nav and yep she says this it it... but it’s not so back to Tegernsee we go...

What was interesting is that we last 2 big factories, cars everywhere one was huge, but we have no idea what they are... I must google to find out... there were literally 100’s of cars here so it must be a big concern.

Anyway back to Lidil shopping centre same as Aldis, they have it too but in the other side of the Lake, plus I had wanted some stuff we bought the other day again and a pair of cheap swimmers I had seen the other day as well.... so we get our bits and pieces then head to have a cuppa so John can find out if the Service Centre at Bad Tolz can help, and yes they can but tomorrow....

However John in his wisdom decided it might pay if we drive there now, just to see if someone can do a quick look.... the guy John spoke to the only guy who can speak any English is at lunch 🥗... so we decide to head to lunch as well, so back to the Bad Tolz Mall where we have been 3 times before... I said to John we aren’t going back to the same place we ate before let’s try something different... well we did try but either they were too busy or outdoors and it was too cold and miserable to sit out, so yep you guessed it we ended up back at the same spot as last time... but the service was great, the food 🥘 not too bad, and we didn’t have to wait long fir it to come... the lady serving us didn’t speak a lot of English but she gave it her best, we all had a laugh 😆 and got we ordered so all was good...

Back to see our English speaking car tech, he checked the buzz box out and couldn’t find anything wrong f, which made John happy... he just wanted someone from Renault to say all good in case something is wrong we have had it checked and cleared by them... while there at Bad a Tolz Renault, they had the cutiest Little car 🚙, it was all electric zippy little thing worth $16,000 so not a drop in the ocean... but had one set and a ducky seat type thing in the back... apparently only one of these has gone to Australia so far! I feel I. Love with it, yep you guess it a no deal for me it won’t fit in my suitcase! Ha ha.... it is cute though!

So back to our hotel, I am starting g to get a flu can feel the sore throat coming on fast.... we did go to the Jacuzzi for a bit then updated pics and dairy, this arvo.. ate in as nit feeling the best... we did watch a movie 🎥 and not sure why... in all honesty it was probably one if the worst pictures we have ever seen. Called Swiss Army Men, dumb name for a dumb movie.... even had Harry Potter Daniel Radcliffe in it which didn’t do him any favours at all... stupid thing it was... silly us for watching it! Anyway our day is over again we have set out to achieve something and have done it... yukky weather and all....Read more
