Sleigh ride = wonderful!

So many things happen here abroad it's hard to pick things to talk about....I'll try and hit the high points since the last post... (in different posts)
MONDAY - We drove about an hour out of the city into the mountains to go on a sleigh ride. I was so excited for this - and it was every bit as good as I expected and better. We rode in the sleighs for about 45 minutes up to an alpine hut to eat, then back down the mountain as well. It was AMAZINGLY AWESOME!! Here are some cool pics to show you!

Look at the snow on these roofs! There was even more on some that I couldn't get pictures...


Macy and I with the sleigh driver! haha. He gave our sleigh some Schnapps...what a nice guy

Sounds of the babbling brook were in the air!

My individual plate with the different jams on top - cranberry, apple, and plum!

Another wonderful picture of the mountains

I will post later other pictures and adventures that I've had, but as of now it is midnight and I'm going to the Untersberg Moutain and taking a cable car up there so it will be another great experience that I'm looking forward to!!!
