We figured that now Wanda was better, we could do the journey in 10 hours easily...However, as it approached 4pm and we were only just approaching the Slovenian border we realised that we would have to just imagine what was happening on the pitch...Stopping at a petrol station in Slovenia we managed to catch the last two minutes of the game, and wish we hadn't - 4-1...! The Brits had been defeated....
However...some more good news was about to follow...as soon as we entered Austria we were able to reconnect again with our Navi-man...The last time we heard from him was in Germany and I don't think that he was happy about being kept in a box for the last 3 months. But let me introduce him properly - his name is Daniel and he is very British. He's quite a sensitive guy and doesn't like it when we make fun of his pronunciation of Austrian street names. He's not so up to date with the short cuts just yet but he has been kept in a box for a while so maybe he's just readjusting to working again. He has a Navi-partner, whose name is Emily, but she always sounds annoyed so we are just sticking with Daniel for the time being. We are very grateful for his return to the van and feel like he has become an eigth member of the team...
Toni reconnecting with Daniel
Our journey took a total of around 15 hours, passing through Croatia and Slovenia before we arrived in Linz, Austria, where we will be until 18th July.
