St. Anton

End of January, Anniken, Thor-Inge and I left Brasil, flew to Munich where we met Sondre who came down from Norway.
One week of skiing in wonderful St. Anton, Austria, was ahead of us - we had just forgotten how extremely cold it could get.......


Beautiful !!



Our usual lunch place. Last year, in Dec/Jan, we ate outside in the sunshine. This year, we ran inside to get some heat in our frozen bodies.



Some hot gulasch soup helped.

- 19 degrees was freezing cold.

Especially for us who came from +35 in Brasil!

Not many people this time of year :-)

Crazy Kangouru is THE HOTEST after-ski place in Europe.

Sondre and Anniken are too young, T-I and I too old, so we stuck to the same brown, smelly place as last year. It has its own charm - believe it or not!

Thirsty man after 7-8 hours of skiing!

Hot chocolate for a cold girl!

We discovered the most cozy restaurant ever, an old barn that was made into a fondue-restaurant; Robi's Rodel Stall.

After a day with snow storm, where all the top lifts were closed, we woke up to a day with sunshine, no wind and the mountains covered in fresh unused snow!

So what do we do? Line up looooong time before the lifts open, run into the first lift together with some other Norwegian ski bums and we were the first to set off the top and decorate the mountain with our tracks in the fresh snow :-))

Thor-Inge and Sondre were also first down, but it has to be said that Anniken and I were far from that!!! We enjoyed the ride, had some problems in the meter-deep powder and of course, we had to take some photos :-)

Anniken in great style!

Ooops, all this snow :-)

"Storbrua was here"

My crazy boys SKIED down this cliff!!!!!!!!!!!

Luckily I was not there at the moment or I would die of fear!

Handsome man, skies like a crazy boy and loves this kind of holiday more than anything else :-)

You like it too??

Nice grab :-)

Even without her friends and her computer, she enjoys skiing A LOT!

Of course this crazy family had to do some jumping, and I had to be the photographer. Only this time I was freezing my fingers off.............

"Did you get a nice photo???"

Not afraid even though she had a terrible accident some years ago.

But the landing was kind of soft, so it was hard to hurt oneself!
