Bluebird day at Dachstein West. Sunrise to those sunset beers top of last lift. Good times!

Xmas dinner with the Stoddards. Thanks for having us guys! More thanks to Nate the chef & helpers, what a spread!

Good morning Steuer! Bit of snowfall today then?

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Awesome sunset up top (Hartkaiserbahn) before taking the last run home. Beautiful!

Not a bad breakie spot! Pls excuse empty plates: we were too quick. So included a shot of sweet stuff eaten later

Delicious roast pork & crispy chicken. Some of the best Asian food I've ever had! + a cheeky beer or two. Cheers!

When you fancy a burger... lucky they have Indonesian chicken curry on the menu for someone else! Nom, nom, nom!

Arrived in Seefeld (in Tirol) to this very pleasant view from our balcony. That'll do! Now, time to go explore...

Breakie at traditional German digs. Boiled eggs, cold cuts, etc. Prolly lucky I didn't see schnapps until leaving!

Few beers & dinner with the family @ Alter Keller. Delicious food & good times. Definitely worth the 4,000km drive!

Unexpectedly asked to share some afternoon tea. Nom, nom, nom! Hope we aren't having a big dinner (preempting)!

Xmas markets in Basel. Lots of things to see... & eat! Lots of people here too but a very nice atmosphere

Le Taj Mahal, Besancon. Asked if I'd like it "very, very hot", was sceptical (it's France) but wow, had a kick! Yum!
