Alex and I went alpine skiing today - yay!
We were really lucky with the weather: the sun shone, the sky was blue and the snow was excellent. We were at the ski area of Ehrwald in Tyrol at the southern base of the Zugspitze. Zugspitze is the highest mountain of Germany - 2,962 metres - and is right on the German-Austrian border, less than 2 hours drive from my home town.
After skiing, on the way home, we warmed up in the saunas of Kristall-Therme Schwangau near Füssen. The spa is creatively decorated in the themes of crystals, grottos, swans, and King Ludwig II of Bavaria who had built the nearby world-famous castles that are now tourist magnets.
My mother has come home from hospital and is getting better.
Still no news about my visa.

I was once on the Zugspitze, but that's years ago. Today we were just in the Ehrwald ski area.
