Time To Rest.

Good to just sit and look at the river.

Coffee Time

Good to stop and have coffee.

Di's Favorite.

Iced coffee which is so good on a hot day.

Into Melk.

In the final stages of our ride.

The Melk Abbey.

This has to be one of the best I've seen with so many sculptures and statues, fantastic painted ceilings and the views are magic. Well worth the climb up on a very hot day.

Beautiful.

Just a sample of what is seen right through out the Abbey.

Looking Up.

I think that you could sit and look at these ceilings for days and still not take them all in.

Cafe Carrado.

Di and I sit at a cafe we found which reminded us of our Carrado and his restaurants back home.

Carrado.

Nice guy and we had quite a talk. Great ice cream to.

Good-bye Bike.

You served us well and didn't throw me off or injure me. A great experience
