Were brought back down to earth with a bang at the campsite when a large group of unruly schoolkids set up their vast tent circle within 2 feet of us. Although this did provide us with amusement at first as they spent a good hour wrestling with tents as they tried to put them up. We were less amused to be woken at 1am to the sound of one of them vomiting right next to our bikes, and being kept awake by their loud nattering while listening to music on their mobile phones. All this resulted in a late start, but we eventually set off south in the direction of the alps more than slightly concerned about hills. We skirted round the Wienner Wald, Vienna forest, and crawled up a small hill to gain a spectacular view of Vienna behind us and then a large plain with daunting hills in the distance infront, some of which were capped with snow.
