Thursday, our last full day in Augsburg. Now Callum G has the dreaded lurgy and Ben G is still not well. Everyone else fronted for the last session. The sun is out again, hence some photos at the course. We have all enjoyed Augsburg despite the Ds&Vs. After the session we packed some gear and boats into kiddas van and went to leave the course, alas no keys for my car. Callum G had them , in the other car he thought!! Sent a message to tell the other car to come back, which they did…. No keys there either. Sent them all back to the apartment for the spare. Headed off to Dachau ( German concentration camp) a bit later than planned. Hired an audio guide so we all were wandering around with these at our ears , but was a good idea as you got a guided tour at your own pace. Was a pretty sobering experience for everyone but was a worthwhile visit and a reminder of the terrible atrocities under Hitlers leadership.
It was a lovely sunny evening so groups wandered up to the square and had a final look around and icecreams. Much later after dinner we started to wonder what had happened to Mike D as we left him behind for a paddle. About 9.30 he rocked in with a story to tell. He had the car, that James and Louise had been driving (belongs to some Slovaks) he crashed into the back of a Merc ( heaps of them here!!)
He couldn’t see any damage but things got a bit testy so the police arrived. Anyway to cut a long story short in all of this he mentioned our lost keys and someone had handed them in. He arrived back to get the ownership papers for the car and his passport , to get off his charge and get my keys back. Quite a relief as the apartment keys were on them as well and would have been a costly exercise to replace both. Packing up this morning and heading to Austria ( Oetz) via the castles of mad King Ludwig in South Bavaria- Neuschwanstein Castle is the castle in the Disney movie trailers.
Not sure about internet in our spot in the alps so cheers for now
