347. Clock watching

Mondsee, near Salzburg, Austria

Exited the caravan ready to start packing up for today's move to find the lovely man that we helped start his car yesterday hovering outside. He had not been able to source a suitable battery yesterday so was off first thing today. He needn't have hovered outside, we, Roman and I, were more than happy to help. Again my charger soon had him going and he was off to get his battery. Later in the morning, while we were packing he appeared and presented us with a gift which was very nice of him but totally unnecessary. He explained that it is a liquor that is eight years old and made of tree root. Anyway, it is a smooth forty percent and very nice of him.

Salzburg bound
Shade appreciated
There is a large contingent of people touring together, from Holland, heading for Italy on Tuesday. Last night they had a big dinner in the restaurant and I think we may have been a topic of conversation as this morning, while we were packing, a number of people called in to meet us and enquire where we had been (got that off pat), where we were going (dunno?) and a variety of questions, many about the children.

We were racing against time as the exit barrier closes at midday. We finally cruised out at eleven fifty eight and stopped one hundred metres beyond to sort everything.
Love the sweeping fields without fences
