Can' believe its nearly a week since I last put anything on here! We have had a very busy week - family, friends and guests have kept us all on the go, but nicely so and we have enjoyed having everybody here. Lots of photos already on my facebook page (www.facebook.com/rosgowers) but a few more here as well. A highlight was our Wednesday evening Hungarian barbecue - authentic Hungarian Goulash cooked as it was meant to be - over an open fire. Lots of fun and tasty too! Think we might try some other dishes this way. Also enjoyed eating Gez's personally caught trout but somehow John managed to lose the photo of that! (Sorry Gez!)
Currently we are preparing for the arrival of 48 Czech walkers who will be with us for the next week - we have introduced a new concept to the local tourist office, making use of a good opportunity. Thanks to John's efforts (all in German!) they have put together an info pack for each guest to take home with them to show their friends which will hopefully attract other walkers to our area. Our friends Steve and Julia have been very pleased with what they found here and will be writing us up for the UK Alpine Club so that should help too. All goes towards bringing more people to our wonderful part of the world.
The other big news of the week is that John finally managed to get his bike registered here, so with a bit of luck we will be off on some rides soon, starting next week with a quick run to meet some friends on the Grossglockner. John is sooooo pleased! We have had several bikers stay overnight this week, so our marketing is clearly having an impact in that area too. Time for another internet blitz I think!
We here the weather in the Uk has perked up, so we hope you are all finally having a good summer. Temps here are still high, but Monday and Tuesday don't look so bright. Still it will improve again afterwards and the sun should stay with us through till the end of October - still time to book folks!!
Take care!
