Day 2, 31/03/08: Crossing the Alps

I wrote that after Viena it was highway all the way to Italy. Well, it isnt true. There was a point that the highway finished and it was normal road up the Alps. Indeed, crossing the Alps (at least where i did it) was piece of cake. Not very steep slopes, a significant amount of tunels, not too much trafic. Before the trip i was afraid my Fiat was going to suffer here, but he behaved bravelly.
As for the landscape, the idiot here crossed it at the end of the day, beggining of the night. So, i suppose that i missed the most pretty landscapes, and there is a strong possibility of not passing these roads again. In the middle of the Alps, and because i was hungry, decided to stop in a small village for a dinner. Those who know me will immediatly think that i stoped in some McDonalds. That would be unlikely to be found in a village on the Alps, and also would be an insult to Austrian cuisine.....
Found a restaurant owned by a middle-east looking person and had a kebab.
