John is feeling a little better today but broke the shovel handle for the second time. First time in Chile…. It is getting to be spade length.
 
I navigated while John drove. We headed north to Maribor and the oldest fruit bearing grape vine said to be about 400 years old. An easy drive and found a park close by. Had a look at the vine and a wander around the museum. Next a coffee at one place and food next door. Had a burger kinda beef patty with cheese in flat bread. I ordered half John a whole. Far too big. It is a shame that often times we eat out we leave feeling disappointed in the food.
 
I drove and John navigated us north and West just south of Austria’s border. 

Through the mountains following a narrow valley and a much damned Drava river with hydro electricity on it. John took me on a very narrow road which was even dirt for a section. I was just glad no one was coming the other way as there were very few passing places. Was only for about 10km.
In time, John realized we needed internet first thing in the morning to call family on Christmas eve so we stopped on the outskirts of a small hamlet called Krna na Koroskem.

 126km
