It's snowing!

Steve was VERY excited the moment it started to snow. He was standing in a carpark in Kirchberg (Austria) with a huge grin on his face, trying to catch snowflakes.

He grew up in Adelaide's 40 degree heat so it's one of those life experiences he's never had. It's also one of the reasons we are here. So he can tick "get snowed on" off his bucket list.

And lucky for us, we awoke this morning to a perfect blue sky day. The pic is the view from our bedroom window at Bergastof Zinting, above Brixen im Thale.

(For those of you who don't know, Zinting is the place I worked at 22 years ago as a chambermaid / kitchen hand. Great job. I worked a few hours at both ends of the day, went skiing from 10 - 3, and lived with a lovely couple who treated me like a member of the family. Yep, I lucked out with that job. Everyone else I knew who worked the winter season that year seemed to be only one step above slave labour.)
