Zwiesel and Schwellhaeusl
We are continuing to mix trying to get out and do/see things while just settling in to as much as the culture and just take it real easy. As much as possible we still try and wake up and not put too much pressure on ourselves to rush out if we are not traveling. There is a thick forest behind where we are staying. Rob, Jackie and Natalie took a hike up to Schwellhausel. It is a hut that originally used by forest workers that dammed up the rivers to aid in logging at the turn of the century. Now there is a small café up there (apparently) we never made it all the way up there. You cannot get there by car. Hopefully we will take another stab at it before we leave. Zwiesel is the local town just west of Eisenstein about 15 kms. We don’t have internet access in Eisenstein so Rob went in to Zwiesel at night to try and follow up on some communication that we needed to do for next week at about 6:00pm. It turned into a bit of a night, after he finished doing the internet communications at a café he found our Renault completely locked up! It was parked in an area that becomes locked up all night after 7:00 pm. After trying to get the compound unlocked he ended up getting a cab back to Eisenstein and then went back in the morning to pick up the vehicle. The German cab talk must have been pretty good with the cabbie as he didn’t charge full fare.
