Tam and Toby ~~ Hunting Zorba .....Take two.

[Grianan]

Can you stay overnight at Linderhoff for the €3.40 ... it wasn’t clear I thought when we went last year but would have been cheaper than where we ended up! Lovely place, I loved Bavaria ... Bad Tolz was my favourite ...

Plenty of good looking places you have posted pictures of Tam. I think I'll have to add Germany to my list of places to visit.
When you get to Greece I trust you have Metiora on your list of places to see. One year on holiday I hired a car and spent a night there - it's worth a lot more than 1 night. We had a most enjoyable evening with friendly locals even those that we couldn't speak each others language. Unfortunately all my photo's are on slides so I can't post any pictures.

I am not in Calpe,,,We don't sit,,Spend the mornings cycling,,only steady about 15 to 20 miles and afternoons walking plus always half hour in the pool..Would be travelling more if it wasn't for Covid but feel very safe here in Benicassim. Have to be a bit careful at our age with Covid but we have to keep the exercise levels up BUSBY.

 

[busby]

Oh you are such a bad man..........hope it rains on you next!!!!!!!!!!

It rained one evening last week and one night 4 weeks ago in France,,I think that enough for this trip.BUSBY.

Northernraider , is there any update on the tests or the box for Austria?

Nothing from the test and tomorrow is day 14 ...i gave up on that days ago.

After speaking with Lenny HB regarding the go box he said hes managed a few times without one so i reckon ill just set both satnavs to avoid tollroads and see how i get on ....
Everything ive read online about the boxes seem a nightmare to return for a refund afterwards and id rather take the scenic routes than motorway's anyway

 

[TM59]

But it was a country i hadn't seen and now i have will i rush back? Probably not but i can now say I've been.

I love this statement. Don’t think you will get a job with the tourist board. Enjoy your posts, but you always seem in a rush.

Thats why this thread was called hunting zorba ...the destination is Greece ... Germany was only ever intended to be a passing through country ...some would have done it in 2 or 3 days ... tomorrow will be my 15th day in Germany.

Probably 1 week in Austria , maybe a week in Slovenia , a couple of weeks in croatia then ive still Bosnia , Montenegro and albania to get through before i get to greece ....i plan to be in greece by the start of December

I don't think im going that fast to be honest

I have no idea what the rules are in Slovenia but I believe they have complicated quarantine rules on entry and the BBC are reporting the latest....

Slovenia tightens restrictions as cases spike
Guy Delauney
BBC News, Belgrade

City residents won't be able to escape urban life as easily with the new restrictions
Internal barriers have come crashing down in Slovenia after the government declared most of the country was in the "red zone" for coronavirus.
Red-zone residents may no longer travel beyond the borders of their home region. The ruling affects seven of the country's 12 regions – including central Slovenia, which takes in the capital, Ljubljana.
The restrictions may not be as tight as they were in the spring, when Slovenians were confined to municipal boundaries - with wardens manning checkpoints to police the policy. But city residents planning an autumn escape to the coast, lakes or mountains may feel that the walls are starting to close in again.
Working out frustration in next weekend's Ljubljana marathon will not be an option either. The event normally attracts 14,000 runners - but the organisers say that even with numbers limited to less than a 10th of that figure, the surge in Covid-19 cases "prevented us from carrying out the event safely".
Sports facilities in red-zone regions will close on Saturday - as will restaurants and bars, although takeaway and home delivery will still be an option. And schools are moving online for all classes apart from the first five years.
The government is hoping the measures will reduce the incidence of coronavirus by the time they review the restrictions in a fortnight.
Slovenia reported record numbers of new cases of Covid-19 on consecutive days this week, as the 14-day incidence rate rose well beyond 200 per 100,000 people.
