Wrong coordinates turned out right

Earlier in the week, on a sunny day, we decided to visit a nearby town to view some sights. I did a little preliminary research on Google before we left, then plugged in the "point of interest" on my GPS.

We started out going the right direction, and it should have taken no longer than 10 minutes to our destination. Shortly after a couple of turns we surprisingly ended up on the highway. This was pretty scary for not only Mike, but the passenger as well. We were unsure of where we were headed but followed the GPS as it said.

(Side note: This was Mike's first time on the highway while driving the manual vehicle. )

Austrian Hwy

We ended up driving about 14 miles away, to a town called "Leoben". The town I originally had in mind is called "Bruck an der Mur", and is home to a very old water fountain in the center. However, this center ended up being appealing as well. We didn't have much time to look around but I snapped a couple pictures before heading back.

Monument in the center.

Buildings in the center.

So, I ended up putting the wrong destination in GPS. But it turned out to be a neat sight anyhow. AND Mike got some good driving experience on the Austrian Highway. Nothing can stop us now!
