European Vacation – Part 3 – Post Resort
As stated in the part 2 we got to the train station borrowing the shuttle from the resort one more time, and I drove it down the mountain. My father and brother came along as well. One of them was going to drive it back up the mountain and they also thought it was wise…
European Vacation – Part 2 – The Resort
On Sunday morning we all got up, ate breakfast, and headed to the train station. We got loaded up and started the 4.5 hour train trip to Villach, Austria. It was a beautiful train trip.
