Zell Am See - Back into the Alps

The route we took from Budapest was not the most intuitive.  We decided that if were were going to have to rush back to Spain, we might as well take a route where we could see something new.  The first part of that route was Zell Am See in Austria.  This tiny village is like a pretty hidden treasure.  You come through the mountains on a tight road up to a lake.  The village hangs to the narrow banks along the lake.  Potted flowers line the window sills of all the houses.  For a place so grey and foggy as this high mountain village, there is a lot of color.
