We had a drink or two and then after missing the last train got home with a mix of me running and sitting on the back of the one bike between us.<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday we cruised over to Bregenz again and went climbing on the crag above the town. It was very nice and surprisingly empty considering it was a very nice day. We found a patch in the shade to climb in to reduce the sweating. We went swimming in the lake on the way back and then BBQed with a little one-use BBQ at the lake in the evening with some work friends.<\/p>\n<p>On Sunday we headed to Allg\u00e4u and did the Salewa Klettersteig which was good fun and a bit scrambly. Brendan headed home and we went to dinner with some more work friends.
