I got in at Utrecht, where a guy named Maarten didn’t show up till 30 minutes after we were supposed to leave. When we finally got to Germany a major accident had occurred on one of the main roads (lorry with dangerous liquids had fallen over) and we were stuck in a major traffic jam which lasted from 11pm till 3am.
Luckily, this didn’t ruin the fun we had. Beer was quickly bought at one of the other 25 buses standing still.
And, I met some really cool people!

When the traffic eventually started moving again I was sound asleep and didn’t wake until 8am.
This wasn’t the end of all the trouble, though. Around 11am we were again completely stuck. This time it was a tunnel which was somehow blocked. We were allowed to get out of the bus to stretch our legs and so we walked along with the bus when it got to move a few meters. A snowman was given life and cars were attacked in snow fights.
There's no further need for details, we all were exhausted when we finally arrived at the Gasthof in Mayrhofen at 11.30pm! This was more than 12 hours late! Dinner was fortunately still served and after that we hung out in the Rider's Lounge and had our first Austrian beer, which felt damn good after being in a bus for more than 24 hours!
