Just a short update. Spent the very last week of the year in a small village in Eastern Tyrolia, I belive the hamlet was named "Kals" - or somethin'.
Pic. 1 : Downtown Kals, Osttirol.
Picture one shows the view from my penthouse (or penthaus as they say here in Austria) early in the morning. I didn't even take the photo myself as I was sleeping at that time, naturally. I guess norski took it whilst filling up the bathtube for me morning bath.

Photo nr 2 shows a small valley some 8 km from Kals. Redhead almost broke her knee, so we had to take a day off from serious alpine skiing. So instead we went snowshoe-walking. That was cool. Even more cool was that , due to the weather conditions, we saw 3 minor snow-avalanches. There was not so much snow, but the hills were steep, and the sound of thunder going on and on was really something. Unfortunately I did not take any photos at that time. I was to much ingulfed in the experience.

The last photo is the montains marking the watershed between Kals and Matrei in Osttirol. I liked the light. Hmmm.. I might start to take photography more serious...
BTW: there was no winner for my X-mas-present-competition. No contribution was found worthy enough by the present-committee. But as my very own birthday is in only 6 months; you can participate in the next round ;-)
See ya!
