I am now at the border of Austria and solvaki(spelling?) LAst night I took a spill and it could have been bad but I am lucky. I was in some high winds trying to get to the side of a latge ship that ussaly run the river and I was sucked into a whirlpool! Yep flipped the boat and me. Spinning was not so bad but the fact of the strong currents and the ship well again lucky. I was though able to get on top of the bottom of the boat and paddle it to shore. Everything was intact and only a little wet and lost my radio for music! Anyways I am good and everything and any has happened so far. I have been averaging around 35 miles a day being on the water all aday getting up early and paddling tell dark. No more of this. I am now settling with a nice fun float and getting out when I want and where I want. No more Athens. If I make it there Yes but no if I do not. I belive this pushing was part of my acident. I was in a hurry as always. Taking the fastest current in the middle of the shipping lane ect. My mom always told me to slow down and look around. That is what I am going to do and maybe even do a little fishing.
I will write more but for now this is it I think I will travel a little more today but today is really a relax and resupplie day. Take care.
