Hey folks,

Greetings from Austria! I am "locked up" in the middle of the alps and from our hotel window we see the Grossglockner, the highest Austrian mountain with approx. 4000meters. Well it's a nice panorama that we got here, but the 4 hotels shoot at you with action and activities, at least 20 meeting points and everyday you have to subscribe to the activities....that is a big let down. Children and parents are seperated and we think we will not take part in most of the stuff as we want family holidays and not holidays from our kids. BUT the food is excellent in our hotel which has 4+ Michelin Stars. Well, second day today, from tomorrow on we will wander the alps...and then this should be great holidays :-)

I miss Goldie and No1! No kidding! The break from Goldie came to soon.

I'll check in here on the evenings...

Greetz

Enjoy JImi, It has been raining since yesterday evening, and just made for a not so good day of watching tv, practicing guitar and eating leftovers. Have fun and we expect pictures when you return home.

Cool Jimi! My dream euro trip is to do a full Alpen tout including Austria, France and Deutschland, but also Italy and Slovenia.

Thanks friends!!!! Indeed the Wiener Schnitzel are huge and delicious. They serve great food here. The cook has 2 Michelin Stars, so it's really great....a taste explosion so to say. I play a tennis match every morning to get rid of the calories :-)
