This was a girls trip and we had so much fun. Our poor snowboard instructor was a young chap who must have been completely overwhelmed!

So much fun, especially the gluwine which always helps one to improve skills!

We decided to take a trip to Salzburg and I was nominated driver – YIKES! It was pretty hairy on the winding roads covered in deep snow – but a fun day out enjoying hoy chocolates and sight seeing in this scenic city.

The absolute HIGHLIGHT is of course the après ski! Fantastic! Established in 1976, the Londoner is the place to be in Kitzbühel if you’re looking for a party atmosphere. This smoky British beer den was established by Rik and his Austrian wife, Edith. The Londoner continues to have a considerable presence in Kitzbühel, hosting ski racers and winners. In addition, you can expect highly regarded bar staff and quick service while visiting the Londoner. This is a must-visit Kitzbühel après ski destination.
