yeay, we made it to Austria, the Tux region to be precise. I love it here, this is my 3rd trip to the Tux region in Austria. The 2 previous times was for work, shooting editorial, and I got to meet Herman who really looked after our production. So on a spur of the moment thing I rang him up to see if he could help me out to find some last minute accommodation, as we were not really planning on visiting Austria, just drive through, cut a long story short, our one day turned into a 3 day stay ( thanks Herman ) and I must say, it really is the place to go in Winter for ski-ing, but I was shocked at the amount of snow here now in the middle of summer, and the quality of it ( really good , spewing I did not get a ski in as it looked like fun ) so yeah, lots of ski-ing, starting at about 1500m, and the top of the mountain is about 3250m, but then below the snow line, there are some amazing walking trails, and, like I said, been here in winter twice, so am familiar with the shape of the mountains, but now , instead of covered in snow, there are creeks and waterfalls everywhere, so for walking it is just perfect ( and any of the water is so pure to drink ) SO highly recommend you put Austria on your travel plans, and does not matter what time of the year ( although Herman tells me April is best, still lots of snow, and good weather )
But today we visit the ice palace in the glacier
and we all have to wear a helmet, pretty. It was so glaring and bright at the top, in the valley it was still cloudy, so it felt like we were going snow blind
big tour today, so once inside was hard to take good pics ( will have to get Herman to organise a private tour and get some better shots )
here we go ( p.s. see the layer of fresh snow, and it is the middle of summer )
woauw that was fun, well worth it
