Leaving Slovenia this morning, we travelled through the southern Alps of Austria into Italy. We passed rugged rocky mountain ranges, some peaks devoid of any vegetation nd others with the remnants of now. Driving through the Italian Alps we passed small pale green lakes and villages with castles and churches, until we crossed the Austrian border again and headed into the ski resort of Innsbruck. After a long but scenic drive we have stopped in the Tyrolean mountains just west of Innsbruck in a village called Weibach
