....峰迴路轉....
就這樣喬了一個多星期，發出的詢問信中有半數的信件是石沉大海 [1]，另外一半則收到”銘謝客滿，下回請早”的制式回覆，我當然知道暑假是歐洲人的超級旅遊旺季，更何況是南德的阿爾卑斯山腳的度假名所。
匆匆來到六月上旬，距出發日只剩下兩個月了，坦白說，隨著日期一天天過去，我開始有點緊張了，因為機票已經開了[2]，如果老是搞不定旅館，整個旅程規劃可能將因此從新調整，只怕屆時遊覽指數大打折扣可就白忙了一場。
實在是喬得精疲力竭了，退一步海闊天空，最後變成捨棄農莊型式，改訂一般的民宿旅館，同時把4天住宿分2日在Berchtesgaden，另2日則到Salzburg。
住農莊vs. 住旅館;
在Berchtesgaden住上四宿vs. 只住兩宿;
雖然差強人意，但我還是不死心 ! 我想德國人做事一板一眼的，無端取消我的訂房總該給個說法，不應該就此放棄我的理想，於是乃再次去信旅遊中心，還先自己編好一個怕網路收信不穩定所以重複再寄一封信的理由云云。
[1] 很多民宿旅館是由不懂英文的老先生老太太所經營
[2] 5月中旅行社來電， 要漲燃油附加費嚕， 心一橫， 開了 !
旅遊中心則在隔天行禮如儀的回覆我說她們在接到我的抱怨信函後馬上就轉給 Marktshellenberg 的旅遊中心支會了，她們以為 Marktshellenberg 支會方面已經與我聯繫，同時也把我的信再次轉給 Marktshellenberg 支會。同一天，果真收到 Marktshellenberg 支會的信，如下:
Dear Mr. XXXXX !
On May 28th I was sending this mail to you to xxxxxx@yahoo.com.tw and I had no information on my computer that the e-mail did not reach you. Here is what I wrote to you - if I don´t hear from you again I will cancel your booking at the end of the week.
My mail from May 28th: I got the information on your booking today. We are very sorry that this is taking so long. You have made a reservation for from August 16th until August 20th at Ferienwohnung Förster. As you can see on your mail correspondens we have some problems with your booking. The problem is not the booking system but the owner who offers the appartement. He already had a reservation by phone from his friend and forgot to make the online change with the booking system. But I have an offer to you. If you want I can look for another nice place to stay. I was talking to someone already who has an appartement for 5 people vacant for the same period of time. A very nice place as well. You can have a look at it at www.ferienhaus-untersbergblick.de . If you want you can contact them by mail under: hornlehen@t-online.de The name is Heike Angerer. Normally you can also book them online but at that period of time they have a minimum stay of 7 nights. In our case it is no problem to stay the 4 night you just have to book by mail and they will confirm with you imidiately.
We would be very glad to welcome you in our nice holiday area of Marktschellenberg/Berchtesgadener Land - even if this booking is a little complicated.
We hope to hear from you soon!
Best regards，
Tourist Office Marktschellenberg
Mit freundlichen Grüßen

峰迴路轉。
正是柳暗花明又一村 !
當下馬上就回信給他們表達“我願意“。往後的日子隨著陸續碰到相關的問題就教於Iris， 發現對方相當的熱心， 如果沒有她， 我們的行程將失色不少。
以上約略交待了何以我此刻心情會有點複雜的始末。
想著想著， 車子從薩爾斯堡市區經過米拉貝爾花園， 過橋到舊城區， 然後大約沿著薩河一路來到郊區， 再沿著薩河的支流蜿蜒上山， 距我們往後四天要待的小村莊應該不遠了。
