Subject: Dachau to Berchtesgarden
Dachau to Berchtesgarden
So having arrived too late to see the Dachau museum, we were up early
to see it in the morning. On the way, we thought we'd fill up and
check tire pressures - assuming we could a) find a garage with air and
b) figure out the coversion from psi to bar...
We figured it out in the end and got to Dachau, a very pretty town.
As much as I already knew about WW2, Nazism and the camps, it was
something to stand in the site itself. Unfortunately, world events
since have proved that rememberance is one thing, but learning is
another.
From Dachau we headed for Austria via Berchtesgarden, on the mountain
pass (lots of downhill bends which are my nemesis. It's the combo of
steep downward gradient and hairpin curvature that gets me. I'm trying
to practice before I hit the italian alps on the way home).
