Hallstatt / Obertraun - Austria



Very scenic journey out of CZ into Austria, still 36 deg for most of the afternoons. Hallstatt was very pretty. Came across a car rally in Obertraun with lot's of old Bentley's, Rolls Royce, and BMW's. Hallstatt is the village you can see on the edge of the lake. The picture of the clouds over the lake was taken early one morning from our balcony.
