1: Flughafen Wien (Vienna airport) 6 secs
Eight and a half hours from Brisbane to Bangkok, five hour stopover, ten and a half hour flight from Bangkok to Wien, one and a half hour stopover, and a fifty minute flight from Wien to Salzburg.

I have arrived. Picked up from the airport, I think it was three degrees celcius, quite balmy apparently!

The snow is at least a metre deep here in Bad Aussee, Salzkammergut, everything is so crisp and clean and white. I haven't seen snow since I was three or four years old, and I am completely overwhelmed by its beauty.

Thomas and his father, Herr Schlacher collected me from the airport and we drove up the alps to their village in an alpine valley. The spruce trees are evergreens but everything is covered in snow.

Miss my girls like there is no tomorrow.

Just missed a decent photo but these horses pulled an open carriage. Totally gorgeous and quaint, they suited their surroundings perfectly.
