Interlaken to Bormio.
Yesterday was just about motorway driving. Today we get a taste of the hills. Our task for the day is to spot as many American cars or vans as possible.
We went on three passes with narrow lanes and tight twists. The road is also very hilly. A couple of teams cooked their brakes by constantly applying the stop pedal.
There is nothing like the smell of burning brakes. We took the Bernadina pass and went onto Bormio, after ony spotting 3 American made/ branded vehicles.
We crossed over into Italy. The border controls took no notice of us.
The sat nav managed to find the hotel without any problem. The landlady was not impressed with our car when we pulled up in front of the hotel. The look on her face could turn milk into sour cream.
[Edit: Thua, tell everyone how you crashed the car after driving just 2 feet next morning! lol (Ginge)]
It was early in the morning I was not fully awake. Hadn't noticed, that the car had been moved forward from its spot. When I turned the car, I had the intention of clipping the signage, but I ran out of road and hit the signage and the log barrier full on. My-bad.
