The view outside Mick and Tash's window the morning of our departure :o( And an amazing day of skiing. Unbelievable but it's true, we're just itching to get back on those slopes!!

Back at the castle and feeling cosy and sleepy under the reindeer blanket 

mmmm....kaiserschmann - scrambled pancakes with berries and apple sauce. Absolutely delicious!!

cheers! 

and some jaegermeister to finish up 

Last meal at Innsbruck and ribs are on the menu

elephant in the snow...and the girls are out at an amazing spa (picture outside hot pools with amazing mountain views).  

The troublesome twins - Joy and Kate 

what class, I know! 

After yummy thai, ever so talented Maria (M&T's austrian friend who can speak spanish and climb up mountains on her skis - and bakes very tasty apple strudel!) invited us and the spaniards to her place for strudel.  

all smiles and a full belly

Rene and Angelika - so lovely! 

At the 360 bar (lovely bar with amazing views outside), Tash, Joy, Steve, me, Marcus and Kate 

heading back down to the ground...  

a wintry scene

I was on the right side and at the end, one person gets off first and then the next person. Except of course, I had no idea quite how to do that. The barriers are coming up so what do you do?? Just stay on and let them stop you....naturally! Or maybe not. I thought it was a good diea at the time....
