Day 4

It’s a real advantage if you stay at your parents house - you can dry your stuff using the tiled stove. Well rested my route starts and leads me through Saint Florian, Asten and finally Enns, where I got hungry.

So what to do now? I am a man, I am hungry - Meat is the solution. No pain, the duck is alright - it has just been reinstalled in Asten and there are plenty of restaurants around.

Rain wrecked a map - so I got me a new one. It’s the second map I have lost by now. But it’s hard if you have to rely on passerby. So I am arriving in Ebersdorf, where the Danube blocks my way. Floods. So I turned around and looked for another way.

So I arrived in Melk and lost my last map. Now I am really pissed. I am in the middle of some chaotic area without plan or fear. Asking people was not helpful any more, as I had to stop far too often - So I got me one of those TomTom navigation systems at an ÖAMTC base near Krems.

Arriving at the outskirts of vienna, Ritchie wanted to escort me with his Honda Hornet - but there was no trace of him. But Günter stood in for him. So this day ends in Vienna.
