Still travelling and walking close to the same kms., just a little more relaxed. We’re in Bad Tolz in Bavaria and had an interesting journey to get here. To get to this place we first had to go to Munich then back down to Bad Tolz. In Germany they have saunas everywhere and Bad means sauna. So to get to our place we had to pass nearly through it; then in the same direction to Munich and then way back to our home the place we nearly passed through the first time.

So to begin with we were three trains joined together and we eventually ended up in the second one which proved correct. So we get to the first decoupling of the first, meaning we are now first and third is second. The idea is to save fuel, timetables and time, the three of us travelled together until which time we would have taken number one, the leader, off and dispatched him/her. We now became first, but we had issues. 

 

We broke down at a station, where we were all told to get off. We, the first train were decoupled and driven on for inspection, We waited for the next train to become the first as the third became the second. I then went to confirm with the same people who advised me at Munich, and they said, quick, go back to number three or you may never be seen again!

Back on the train it was fortunate that I memorised the next plan which meant getting off at our station which we did. With our running up and down the train I was not surprised they thought we were guards and asked our advice!  Nah, didn’t happen. 

We’ll do some hiking for Shakeitup here and then move slowly into the Alps and see how far we can go.
