So we actually went back through the tunnel and the nice lady in the toll booth (on the dam, where you pay the 15 Euro toll for the one-way tunnel) told us the road on the other side (route 28), despite the sign, was not a toll road & that we could turn onto it and drive down there and look for a gas station (one with attendants ). She didn't charge us for going through the tunnel again either.

Yeah... I've driven past this tunnel many times. In fact just last month. I always prefer to take "the long way" around.

You did the right thing... I didn't know about that sign... but on that road(#28, you do not need a vignette). Anytime your traveling into Austria or Switzerland... just buy a vignette... bc the Polizei are very aggressive in enforcing "their" laws. The fine is insane IF caught without a vignette. ~130 euros... and IF you don't full affix the decal it can be upwards of 500 euro fine, cash on the spot!

Love all your photos and writeup. On your next ED you have to stay much longer... a few days just will not do!!
