... in the middle of the Chiemsee. I'm obsessed with Christmas markets. I can't get enough of them (and am even going to another one tonight). It had always been a wish of mine to visit the Chiemsee in winter time because I always go there in the summer time and swim in the lake. It looked as I had always pictured it as we took the ferry to the island with the Alps towering over the water covered in snow. On the lake there is also the ...

Monday 29 October Achenkirch still -Walking in a winter wonderland! More powdery snow overnight! Steph and I ventured out to the local supermarket to top up breakfast milk and fresh bread. We had negotiated a wintry walk on the western slopes for the wanderers and set off up the hillside surrounded by snow, conifers and stillness -wonderful stuff. Walking on the lower slopes was not too difficult. The path was relatively well defined and the ...
