Supposed to be a rest day, but it's beautifully white out there so... little jog to take in the winter ambience smile

Saturday 8 February 2025

First and looking like only dusting of snow at home this year. It's been a very warm winter sad

Little treat from the boulangerie... nom, nom, nom! tongue

Thursday 6 February 2025

Deja vu!? wink Another beautifully sunny social day on the piste! grin

Monday 3 February 2025

Oh, go on then... wink Lunch at La Passeyade. Great garbure & dessert, but should have had the sausage main. Next time!

Monday 3 February 2025

Just because... drove up to Payolle & wondered the lake in glorious sunshine. Haven't seen it frozen before. Cool! grin

Tuesday 14 January 2025

Out & about so decided to have a little stroll somewhere different (Visker) on the way home. Lovely winter's morning.

Monday 13 January 2025

Very social ski at Grand Tourmalet. Surprisingly good given how little snow has fallen, was a great day on the piste!

Tuesday 31 December 2024

Good morning neighbours! Have you missed us...? grin

Sunday 29 December 2024

It's good to get home from a trip & enjoy our mountain views... erm... #WrongKindOfMountains wink

Saturday 28 December 2024

When you nonchalantly said your winter trip would be a 4000km drive... & get home only 3.7km short of that. LOL! grin

Saturday 28 December 2024

Found a nice Italian restaurant & ordered plat du jour... which wasn't pizza. Doh! Still, that steak wasn't bad! wink

Friday 27 December 2024

Bakery aisle & kebab (well, doner meat sandwich) complete our meals for today. Who said road trips aren't healthy? wink

Thursday 26 December 2024

Couple of hours drive later, some of that even on the autobahn! Yes, is cold today so had to clean snow off by hand.

Thursday 26 December 2024

We're passing the Black Forest today so... coffee & obligatory gateau at our last rest stop in Germany. Super yum! tongue

Thursday 26 December 2024

Time to dig out the car and head home! So long Steuer - that was fun! smile

Monday 23 December 2024

Skiing deserted Dachstein West. Snowed all day so ate squashed sanger in telecabin. Hoping pics are better next time!

Sunday 22 December 2024

Lunch @ K2 Restaurant with Meli & Sam. Nom, nom, nom! tongue Very white out front, but sorry about bizarre light inside.

Sunday 22 December 2024

Arrived in Steuer... let it snow, let it snow, let it snow...! grin

Sunday 22 December 2024

Tschuss Abtenau smile Was short but sweet... maybe see you again when it's not so white? Could bring the snail? grin

Saturday 21 December 2024

Arrived in Abtenau to catch last rays of sun, from the balcony & above. Love this place but just here for the night.

Saturday 21 December 2024

Afternoon drive to Abtenau via Gosau. Beautiful scenery, especially near the end when the sun came out smile

Saturday 21 December 2024

Side trip to Hallstatt. Beautiful but bitterly cold in the lakeside shadows. Should have got up earlier... doh! wink

Views on the morning drive from Salzburg: Fuschlsee & Wolfgangsee (over St Gilgen & to St Wolfgang im Salzkammergut).

Friday 20 December 2024

Dinner @ Ichi go Ichi e, Salzburg. Wonderful food (both ramen & rice dishes) & lucky to find space on a Friday night!

Friday 20 December 2024

Culture done, back to the market to say hi to sis & munch some random treats. Dampfnudeln the clear winner! Yum! tongue

Friday 20 December 2024

Salzburg cathedral organ recital. Some interesting art, esp. in the crypt, but not super impressed with the music sad

Friday 20 December 2024

Morning stroll into central Salzburg... lucky we already had that hotel breakfast... erm... feast? wink

Friday 20 December 2024

Hotel room breakfast... at least they left us fresh raisin bread so there's something vaguely nutritious? wink

Thursday 19 December 2024

In a strange twist of fate turns out our hotel this eve is right next to a highly rated Indian restaurant wink Nom! tongue

Thursday 19 December 2024

Cheers! But... erm... why are we drinking from what appear to be tiny vases?? tongue

Thursday 19 December 2024

More xmas markets & sparkly lights, this time in Salzburg. Then a short walk across the river & back to our digs.

Thursday 19 December 2024

Rest stop & a chance to walk through this very cool little gorge (Innersbachklamm). Gem of a find!

Thursday 19 December 2024

Today's random views from the road: Sankt Jakob in Haus, Pillersee & a small gorge near Schottl.

Wednesday 18 December 2024

Beer & pizza at Memory Cafe, Ellmau. Delicious! Place seems to be frequented by stars, so got a selfie with Arnie! wink

Wednesday 18 December 2024

Little jolly to look at Hintersteiner See. There are llamas at home too, but somehow more exciting here wink

Tuesday 17 December 2024

Apres... erm... well, not ski, but playing in the snow. Cheers!

Tuesday 17 December 2024

Playing in the snow with little people... wink
