We left Split Friday morning at 7.40 on the relative long trip back to Denmark, we had decided to drive trough Slovenia and cross the border to Austria by Villach, and head to Salzburg, Munich, Nuremberg, Wurzburg and follow highway A7/E45 from there on. This is how the trip went.

KM 616 Border to Austria time15.20, we bough a Vingette at the last Slovenian gas station before the border after “negotiating” a bit with the attended who on German claimed that price for the Vingette was Sieben und Siebzig Euro, which is 77 EURO, what he actually wanted to say was Sieben Euro und Siebzig Cent which is 7.70 Euro.

KM 815 Salzburg / Border to Germany.

KM 885 Arrival Rosenheim time 18.15 we decided to stop here for the night as traffic was getting heavy manly because of fog causing a decreasing visibility.

In Rosenheim we found our selves a nice little hotel in the centre, Hammerwirt (75 Euro for “double room” for all 4 of us), the receptionist told us there was Christmas market in the 2 minutes walk from hotel, so of course we went to see that. The Christmas market was world class, I really reminded us of the years we lived in German.

Slovenia 10.50 Euro

Austria 16.00 Euro
