DAY 16 — Friday, May 10, 2024
Today’s 13.4 mi (21.4 km) took me through the beautiful countryside with spectacular views. My first rest was at a pond on a floating pontoon bench; then a walk through the forest and a scene of happy cows; a visit to St Brigida (aka St Brigitte) Church; a fight at my luncheon restaurant that police was called to stop; the beer man made of beer kegs; and a cyclist accident that happened before my very eyes (no pics—would have been most impolite).
Being only about 5 miles from Salzburg, I will use tomorrow to replan my itinerary and buy train tickets to take the train the following day (Mother’s Day, May 12th) to my walking endpoint (TBD) and walk back to Salzburg over the remaining five days to put me in Vienna on Friday, May 17th.
