They say there are no kangaroos in Austria, but we wouldn’t know. Apart from a few hours wandering around Salzburg (during which it drizzled rain intermittently), we drove from Salzburg to Venice through torrential rain and some hail. The rain was so heavy at times that we couldn’t see the road ahead, which was so slick with water that we were frequently aquaplaning – quite a frightening scenario in a little car on a very fast motorway! The rain eased a little after we left Austria, and cleared to isolated storms as we approached the Italian coast. First impressions of Italy:
· Ramshackle farm buildings, that look 300 years old, almost completely ruined on one side, but apparently still inhabited...
· Expensive – it’s almost impossible to find accommodation for less than 25 euros per person per night in the places we’re going.
