So I had a great breakfast at Vilaraj north of Maribor and got a good start, the steep climb was a lot of fun coming down just check the brakes a few times be sure i could slow down… mostly descended 12-18 mph and then made the poor decision to go south into town to shop for a rear view mirror and a poncho, mistakenly remembering where the train pulled in was a shopping center, tho my next stop was to the north a ways. Did not find either at the shopping mall so got a sandwich to go and started north into the hills, then it started to rain.
And the hills got steeper, and the rain was harder and when your hands are wet, and the phone is wet, it doesn’t work for finger controls… so I got off the path spent an hour or so trying to get back on the track.
Finally decided to make a reservation somewhere on air b n b there was a nice looking place at a good rate log home guesthouse at Schwarzau im Schwarzaut, so I headed there and saw some big hills i had to get off and push just once but once everything was soaked it got a lot heavier a load. I had emailed the host i expected to be there 3-5pm, then again 4-6, then about 5, then well probly 6-7, and i finally arrived 715 lol after she emailed do you need us to come pick you up?
But everything worked out fine tho i had no dinner didn’t see a grocery store since Sentilj Slovenia, she said there was a good place in Wolfsberg that delivered so i had a nice pasta and salad dinner, and Eva gave me a good bottle of local Austrian beer, had a good hot shower and laid everything out to dry had a good night sleep.
