Unique water trough. Yes, that is the bung near the middle!

All made of wood

A very slow start this morning as we are both still feeling the muscles that haven’t been used much lately. We decided to go for a drive to the neighboring villages. We had a lovely day just driving and looking at the lovely chalets and the flowers on the balconies. Each little hamlet seems to take great pride in their area by flowers and sculptures or statues carved from wood. Austria is a very clean and green area and everywhere looks very well cared for. We managed to find a wee shop that sold some unusual homemade food and alcohol. Managed to buy a bottle of walnut schnapps for Peter Gorton to enjoy. Back to St Johann to try yet another café for dinner. This one gave us a complimentary drink which was a cherry liquor which was quite tasty. As we wandered back to the hotel in the rain we came across a brass band giving a concert in the park. A very nice end to the evening.
