Daphne Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 My favourite country for the snow and the after-snow cake! I hope you have a great time, I find being out in the snow very refreshing, a bit like being in the sea, all your focus is on staying alive and/or being exhilarated, rather than worrying about day to day stuff. Its very 'in the moment'! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Austria too - so pretty - and yes I am looking forward to having some strudel, hopefully grostl and a bosna! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soapdragon Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 MH, just don't buy a cuckoo clock; you'll only regret it once you have got it home! (Or is that only Switzerland?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullethunter Posted January 5, 2020 Author Share Posted January 5, 2020 😂 think that’s Switzerland. I guess Austria’s equivalent would be a cow bell! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a set of bells and a cow horn on my first skiing trip 35 years ago 😯. I still have them 😁 and I still ski, although last time was 2 or 3 years ago. I will return! x 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The day I travelled out it snowed all day and the lifts were all shut. The next day - my first day in the mountain - there was fresh powder with wall-to-wall sunshine and no wind. I was there three days and had that weather the whole time. Then the day after I left all the lifts were shut again for two days! I skied Skiwelt from Brixen-Im-Thale for two days and the Kitzski area from Kirchberg/Kitzbuhel one day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Missed this too - super photos Mullet. I feel cold now! My favourite one is of the footsteps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daphne Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 I missed it as well, it looks awesome, you get a real feel for life in the mountains, the clean air and the quality of the light. Those poor people in Austria and Switzerland who had to be bundled home in a great hurry last week as a result of CV, I do feel sorry for them.
