The cleanliness, road conditions, and food were a welcome change after traveling Asia for 10 months. Austria is extremely easy to get around and the distances between cities are only a few hours. Seeing the Alps and the Himalayas within the span of a week was truly an amazing experience. Of course the trade off for all of the creature comforts of Europe is paying European prices for accommodation, etc. so my time in Austria and Slovenia will be short and sweet.
Unfortunately for the folks back home the Werfen Ice Caves did not allow cameras so you will have to consult Google for the views. Otherwise camping in the Alps at lower altitudes was very comfortable during the summer and the views when you wake up are great, Looking forward to constant electricity and speedy internet access; this blog should be updated more from now on!
