Mieders, Austria!


We hiked through the mountain from our hostel in Fulpmes, rode the tram up this mountain, hiked waaaaaaaay up and over to a monastery for a couple of hours, and then got down off the mountain on this.  Oh my goodness!!!  Invigorating!  Waaaaaaay fast!  Steep!!!   Sharp curves!!!!!  Screamed a little, but I didn't cry like one gal I saw on a video.  They belted us in sufficiently, I suppose.  And in case you haven't guessed, I am now ready to begin documenting our amazing month on the road.  Forgive me for borrowing this youtube video.  Neither Paco nor I had our wits about us sufficiently to videotape our descent.  Bladder control was about all I could manage!!!

More times than I would now. The unknown was just that--the unknown! The second time down I would have thrown a little more caution to the wind!
