We spent a good fun weekend
with a group of friends skiing in Westendorf near Kitzbuhel in Austria
It
was minus 20 degrees on the slopes, so I didn’t mind wearing a helmet like our
snowboarding friends. However, moustache and beard soon became festooned with
icicles. I also found that my trusted ski gloves, bought 30 years ago were not
quite up to the job
We were staying in an
apartment in a hotel half way up the mountain. With half board included, we
didn’t have to venture out except to ski. It was little wonder that we could
see no wildlife on the mountain, as it all seemed to be stuffed and mounted on
the walls of the bar and dining room.
