Salzburg - side trip to Hallstat - magical
I accidentally found Hallstatt many years ago when I was driving around Austria and got lost after taking a wrong turn. This was back when the old paper maps were the order of the day. Stunning place and we always make a habit of going back whenever we are in the region

Time flies @VPS - as you do.
Perhaps you should borrow my moniker Flyfrequently!
 
A little out of sync but I was going to put this in the MCC thread but thought I'd add a bit more info.

I stayed at the cottage on the Scottish borders. One of the nicest places I stayed in and definitely 5 out of 5 for friendliness without being over the top and supplies given including just call me if you want more logs for the fire otherwise help yourself to the wood shed. A lot of places only give you enough for one fire.

The Cottage | Bread Oven Cottage. They are on AirBnB but I booked direct and save over 30 pounds a night.

The only problem was there wasn't a pub for 6 miles but I stocked up and was fine

OK I'll try and get that bit done on the weekend. My overwhelming impression was of not very friendly people who smoked a lot but there was some highlights

I spent a morning there on a Cruise in Spring 2022. I did my usual trip report with lots of pictures - you might have to refresh a coupl of times to get all of them to appear. I actually liked Trieste and had a nice lunch there. I thought the locals were friendly but certainly like the rest of Europe there were a lof of smokers.
Trieste is from Post 815 to 847. The link should take you to the page post 815 is on.
