Midsummer, and this past week it has rained day and night almost without interruption. June 21 is traditionally celebrated with mountain bonfires on every inch of the horizon and big firework displays. This year, additional celebrations were planned for the opening of the new high ropes course in Maria Alm. But Midsummer can't be postponed due to extremely bad weather, so it just wasn't celebrated. A massive disappointment for thousands of tourists and locals, perhaps not so disappointing for Dominic, whose car broke down on his way to catch his £5 Ryan Air Salzburg return flight. He missed his flight and enjoyed a week of English sunshine instead.
