@godfishWelcome back to my Alpen travel journal! We had to reconsider the second hike of our recent vacation in the Alps due to an incoming thunderstorm. We initially wanted to take this route in reverse. However, starting in Bad Gastein and taking the funitel (the ski lift you see in my photos) gave us two opportunities to descend safely if the storm arrived, not to mention several hüttes along the slopes. Oh yes, the Gastein area is a popular skiing destination, and I have visited it several times in winter. Bad means spa in German, and I recall that once we had a thermal bath included with the ski pass. That dip was delightful after a full day of skiing, but that’s another story. In the summer heat, with a storm approaching, it felt nothing like a winter resort. The skiers were replaced by hikers, bikers, and cows. Hundreds of cows.

@hindaviHello, friends hive travelers, and community greetings. After the Gaustatoppen hike and exploring the steep cliff of Ravnejuvet, we headed to Vinje. My friend Maria waiting for us. Driving towards Vinje there are very nice places we had no time to stop at every small place. But still, they were beautiful in the morning sunshine.

@hoosieToday we took a boat trip out to Inchcolm Island, which sits in the Firth of Forth, between Edinburgh and Fife in Scotland. We've wanted to go for some time, and we made it happen today. It wasn't that hard because boats run regularly to the island from South Queensferry. It took 45 minutes to get there by boat, and they dropped us off for an hour and a half and then took picked us back up (for another 45 mins return trip). It wasn't too expensive, and the boat had a tour guide sound-track so you learned about the area, islands, and bridges too - well worth it.
