Day 3 – May 8th – Resting in the rain
At school skiing courses we were always told: The third day is a resting one since due to fatigue there is a high the danger of an accident.
Today the heavy rain took this precaution for me. So I decided to discover Bregenz on foot and had a lovely 10 km walking stroll.
Though from the number of inhabitance (close to 30 000) is Bregenz similar to my home town Kolin, I had to admit it is a little bit more attractive.
Well, what a painful confession from a Kolin patriot 🙂
10 km walking in the rain in Bregenz
Guess what these numbers are? Correct, the first one is the size of an electron, the second one the speed of light. I did not know the first one, but a politician at the EU-election booth told me 🙂
Medieval age seemed to not welcome every visitor
The Manneken Pis of Bregenz is called „Brünzler“. He apparently needed some mending today. The good message for men over 50: Here comes a proof that not every prostate problem requires a medical doctor.
The narrowest house of the world – only 57cm wide. Yes, it widens on the other side. Several hundred years ago, the owner built it illegally in this gap. But still a construction mastery.
I asked one of the security guys why the local parliament is so much guarded, even with a fence. „There is a local parliament session going on“ he replied. „Are the topics discussed so secret or dangerous?“ „No, idea, we were just ordered here“
There is always a hope. The picture on the left was taken in the morning, the one on the right in the evening. Thus, hopefully there will be sunshine tomorrow….and I can finally start my journey up the hills towards Vienna.
