I'll try to get some in day light tomorrow.
We made it to Zell am See. Haven't yet been able to see the city since it hasn't stopped snowing I do hear there's supposed to be a pretty lake here somewhere. The snowing has made the ski conditions incredible... so much powder. I must say we haven't been too impressed with the people and city so far. The locals are much more business, definitely not as friendly and the hundreds of tourists are VERY aggressive and pushy. The idea of a line to wait for something has not made it to main land Europe yet. Saying that, the mountain has definitely made up for it. I took a ski lessson this morning and was put in a class way below my level. It was good to go over the basics which I've never learned but I was sure glad to move up when another class skied by and I joined them. Brad and I met up at 3:30 and I took him down a couple blacks he hadn't done yet.

Brad made a delicious healthy dinner in our apartment and we're just taking an easy evening in.

Let it snow!!!
No snow here, but glad you're getting lots. When the crowds push, push back! Look forward to seeing your pics as we've only seen Zell am See in the summer.
