Day 15, Saturday Linzt to Krems an der Donau, 102 miles

After two easier days and having Sean on board, we are all staring to feel that this is actually a holiday! We were in a fab hotel last night where we could get really sorted and so started today feeling really fresh and up for it.

We made haste down the Danube cycle path and had cycled 40 miles before 11s. After latte and cake, scrummy choc and nut cake, we did another 25 miles before lunch. Were back into our old routine of having a long lunch because it is so hot and it feels like such a treat. We started the final stage thinking that we only had 25 miles, in reality it was 35. Im ashamed to say that neither the stunning countryside, fruit ladened trees and vineyards, or architecture, fairy tale castles and medieval buildings, could take our minds off this extra 10 miles.
Thanks for all your comments, they are really encouraging and its always good to hear from home.
