Marktgraben 7-9 Innsbruck, Tirol, Austrian Alps, Austria, 6020, 43-512-59967
we finallymanaged to get online with our computer and Austria is bloody spectacular. the scenery is awesome. we have never seen mountains so big, they are so tall that they still have snow on them in the middle of summer.
we have been on a house carriage ride through the forest and drank local schnapps at a 540 year old farm house that the local farmer made himself (it tasted like cow pie)
went to a swiss folk show/restuarant and yodeled our little lips off.
rob bought so...

... it is covered with a chocolate ganache- it was delicious, much better than the day before.<br><br>The afternoon was Greg’s choice and we went to the Bergisel Stadium which is the new ski jump facility which was opened in 2001. This was on the site of the original ski jump facility which was used for the Winter Olympics in 1964 and 1976. You went in a cable car, then a lift to the top ...
Innsbruck, Austrian Alps, Austria kiama_on_tour... you couldn’t be convicted unless you had confessed to the crime, so consequently torture was frequently used. There was a slide show with a description of Maximilian’s life and achievements. As was the custom of those times, his first marriage was one of political convenience but they also loved each other very much. He was devastated when she died, but again married for convenience, this time to a woman who had a large dowry ...
Innsbruck, Austrian Alps, Austria kiama_on_tourWalked to the train station and did an expedition to the supermarket to spend our last Swiss Francs as we are back to Euros in Austria. Had a stopover in Zurich for a while and then caught the train to Innsbruck. Again this was a scenic trip over the mountains and it started snowing and was very deep as we got higher- just beautiful scenery. Innsbruck is surrounded by mountains, all of which had snow on them.<br><br>We checked into our hotel where we ...
Innsbruck, Austrian Alps, Austria kiama_on_tour... it is the coolest thing they have ever seen. I knew they would love it. They dance around and check out the shower in the communal bathroom. Alex eats peanuts, a whole can. We then need to deal with the outcome of this and their smelly feet. I spray his AXE about 10 times in the cabin...I tell them I may have to sleep in the hall...<br><br>They give us free drinks and we each get a drink and there are waters in the room ...
Innsbruck, Austrian Alps, Austria cainteam... a different layout to ours...........do you know how many words have "Y" in them and that is one of the letters that is not where it should be! Innsbruck is the prettiest place and like the rest of the trip apart from Amsterdam, it is very hot. We have been around the Altstadt (Old Town) this morning. It is such a maze with lovely buildings and lots of shops. We also walked to a shopping centre and found a new suitcase. Everywhere is within ...
Innsbruck, Austria cate354This was a lovely little place we stopped at on the bus tour to the castles. Unfortunately, being Sunday, most everything was shut (except for the souvenir shops that is). They have a woodcarving school there that I plan to stop at for a weeklong course on the next trip. But of course it was shut that ...
Oberammergau, Bavaria, Germany danandroz... months. We did venture in to town once or twice, and made the effort to take the funicular up the mountain where we enjoyed one of our famous picnics overlooking some of the most amazing scenery yet. But mostly, we just hid in our room, eating takeaway ...
Munich, Bavaria, Austria cc_world_tour... It has beaten by far all our expectations of what we expected to find in Austria. We didn't really know what to expect as we hadn't read up or looked at any information about what it would be like. Our only experience of mountains so far had been traveling from France to Italy, and it had felt very claustrophobic. There was no beauty! But here, in Austria, it is mind blowing. We have never seen anything quite like it. Looking across from our caravan, you can see the ...
Innsbruck, Austrian Alps, Austria goughfamilyinpaAnother work conference for my parents brought us to Oberammergau for a week. We stayed in the cutest little wooden cottage - like the whole thing ceiling to floor and including flowering window boxes was made out of wood! Totally picturesque like you've read about in Brothers Grimm fairy tales. Aromatic town bakery. Absolutely enchanting.
