Today's adventures began with a bus ride through the Austrian Alps on our way to Italy.  The Alps were stunning!  Everywhere we looked it was just awe inspiring.  We had a little drama on the way as part of the highway was closed due to a rock slide.  Move along.  Nothing to see here.  We made it through before they closed the highway!  We stopped at a rest area on the Germany / Austria border for a quick break and photo op.  Then it was off to lunch in Egna, Italy and finally to Venice.
