But wait~
We had one more special occasion before we ended our time.
Our last day was Sunday, June 15 Father's Day! Matt went for a solo hike to take in the breath-taking vistas once more then we enjoyed our last Austrian buffet. At breakfast, the boys suprised Matt with a couple of new "bandanas" to wear to keep the sweat out of his eyes while biking & each wrote a note thanking him for such a wonderful gift to our family in this trip. It got the attention of other hotel guests not only because it was a sweet moment but also because Father's Day in Austria was the week before. The owner said that he was going to be sure to tell his daughter & wife so that he might be celebrated twice!
After our celebratory breakfast, we waved goodbye to Miklos (our waiter each morning) & the Schmedilechner family (who owns, runs & lives at the Hotel Mohrenwirt in Fuschl) and headed to Munich from where we would fly home.
It was a relatively "quiet" afternoon with the drive through Bavaria, one last stop at a roadside stand for fresh picked strawberries, & getting settled at the airport hotel for the one night's stay. We ate our last European meal in front of a big screen put up especially for the World Cup & watched Switzerland beat Equador 2-1.
