2 of our Austrian tour
Leaving the Austrian State of Styria we made our way westwards on
"Green roads". These are roads designated as being scenically
beautiful in our incredibly detailed Euro Road Atlas and are actually
coloured..... green!!
It's
important that I now honour my vow to cut down on words and just let the
photos do the talking for the rest of our Austrian journey. They cover
the two days we stayed in Hallstatt and the two days we stayed in Zell
am See not far from the Ziller Valley.

Well,
that's most of our material for Austria. Our next stop is Mittenwald
which is over the German border into Bavaria. See you there in due
course. It's a treat to have you along and thanks for keeping us
company.
