First news from St Anton

So...

the last time we wrote we were in Courcheval. The only other news to speak about during training week was when we went out on Thursday night to "le Club" which was the local nightclub. Basically it seemed to be their opening night and therefore, as you do, they had hired some sort of dancer/stripper. She didn't actually strip, was just wearing a zebra print bikini all night and basically providing lap dances to rather awkward looking 18 year old chalet boys...

St Anton Vs Subiaco: A Comparison

... would probably charge $30-40 for a main meal. $22 is likely to buy you a foccacia or salad at a modest cafe in Subiaco. Again the difference lies in the quality of the experience. Perhaps it's just that I am a foreigner in a new place, intrigued by new and interesting dishes and unique ingredients, but I still find that I am receiving a larger portion, better service and more value for my money at restaurants here in St Anton, bearing in mind that the restaurant I ...

So since we last spoke, the temepratures began to warm up to 2-3 degrees but fortunately there was no precipitation and a thin layer of snow still covers the village. I took the opportunity to go shopping at the unlikely named local snowboard shop, 'Supa Surfers Paradise' to buy a new board and ...

St Anton Worriers

... appeals) and it's easy to get caught up in it all and become a 'St Anton Worrier'..... but there's just no point in my opinion. Why should I stress when I look out the window at the sun-rising over the crisply snow-capped mountain peaks and ponder the possibilies of 150 day plus of unadulterated, unitnerrupted snowboarding and partying. This is what we've been waiting for - the beginning. This is it.

Edit: It's now snowing.

Switzerland to Italy & the Stelvio Pass

... want to arrive at 11, and have to pitch up in the dark, so we decided to drive until about 7 - 8 p.m., and find somewhere to stay, then catch the group up at Val D'Isere the following day. As we didn't have a roadbook for the route, we just had to figure it out. This wasn't too difficult with the maps and GPS, so we set off to see how far we could get that evening.

Down the mountain on the Imst Alpine Coaster

... Trey and I returned to the top again intent on blasting down the mountain at top speed. We both made it down without using the brakes at all in 5 minutes and some-odd seconds. We both had a blast. Trey video recorded his first descent and he intends on publishing on youtube when we return home.

... road or the sights. Part way up we ran into some light rain and cooler temperatures so we stopped at a small Gasthaus so Connie could get her rain suit on. I was surprised to see so many motorcyclists going up and down the pass, especially BMWs.

Once we reached the top we stopped for the obligatory photos, spoons, and keychains. Okay, while we were here I thought I also would try a beer and ...

The standard annual trip out to St Anton

... the next 4 days so we got some great conditions. After that it was all blue sky hot sunny days.

I used to work in St Anton quite a while back so it's great coming back here each year and seeing a few old friends who've kept doing ski season after ski season.

Siin me oleme

... kuni süütute lasteni välja. Loomulikult pidid venelased ennast sauna ukse taga ilmekalt väljendama ja Vasja kombel rõvedat naeru laskma. Lõpuks aga ei jäänud neil midagi muud üle, kui ka sisse astuda ja rätik tagumiku alla asetada.

Kuuldavasti pidi selline saunatamine Saksamaal päris tavaline olema. Samuti pidid noored neiud seetõttu sauna eriti mitte külastama, sest teadagi...teismeeas on niigi raske :)

Kokkuvõtvalt jäin selle suusakuurortiga ...
