The only downside from the evening w*s th*t due to Austri*'s *ntiqu*ted smoking l*ws, the venues were filled with * thick bl*nket of smoke th*t resulted in sore eyes, lungs *nd very smelly clothes the next d*y.

In the morning we ventured into ...

... of waking up at the same time every morning for almost 3yrs, it's going to be hard to snap this. But I have always firmly believed that there is one and only one way of breaking the evil sleep pattern, which is to go out and drink. This plan will be put to practice at about 6pm tonight.

There is a lot to organise today such as lift passes, shopping and jobs (not searching too hard for the latter, but will see if ...

... 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 ...

... clubs and balls, writing about the nuances of the holes and overall just looking like total losers who had nothing better to do that hold up a bunch of kids and families from enjoying their mini-golf. Who knew putt-putt could be so intense? So meals here are a bit different than I'm used to back in America with delicious fresh bread being served at most times! Lunch is the largest meal of the day and is usually served promptly at noonish. Breakfast ...

... 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.

... siis pildimaterjal ning eksponaadid annavad kõneka ülevaate mägede tõelisest võimsusest. Meil tekkis Eeroga tõsine aukartus. Hea pilt oli, kus palktares oli suur auk ja selle eest auto suurune kivirahn. Algul ei saanudki aru, mis värk on, aga teine pilt oli skemaatiline, kus see maja ees lebav rahn oli murdunud 500m kõrgemal kalju küljest ja lennanud mööda mäe külge alla otse läbi maja seinte. Galtür ise on igav ja väike linnake, mis Ischgli kõrval hale vari. Seal ei toimu mingit jämmi.

... alla neelamist pikalt suus hoida. No ma mõtlesin,et tühja see mulle hävitavalt mõjub, aga... Autopiloot viis mind baarist korterisse. Teised läksid restosse õhtust sööma ja ei olnud märganud, kuhu ma järsku kadusin. Veiks käis igaks juhuks korteris ja leidis mu õndsat und nautimas :) Pärastpoole kui olin kosunud ja teistel kõht täis, avastasime, et meil on sügavkülmas kaks kauamängivat viina. Need läksid apelsini mahlaga kuidagi kiiresti ära. Jabisesime poole ööni.

... br>Silvretta suusakeskusest ca 2 km Landecki suunas asub ühe külalistemaja külje peal mõnus hubane 2-korruseline suusamajake, mis mahutab u 8 inimest. Asukoht on küll keskusest natuke eemal, ent tasuta suusabuss viib teatud kellaaegadel huvilisi edasi-tagasi. Bussiaegade üle võib küll viriseda, sest viimane buss keskusest väljub 17.30 ja kes soovib kauemaks jääda, peab jalad selga võtma või takso püüdma.

Majas oli olemas kõik eluks vajalik...well, wc paberit ...

... apparently has a stronger constitution than I do!) Once I was on the path winding up the mountain though, I was fine. Spectacular view from up here, looking down on the valley. Took what I believe to be some good camera shots, I just hope that they come out so that I can share this experience with the others. On our way back down to town, there was a little church along the trail, so we decided to stop in and check it out. We discovered that it was a Catholic church, and ...
