International Ladies Winter Break With Husbands


It was that time again - the Winter meet up with my Italian and German friends. We  invite our husbands to come on some trips and thankfully they all get on well. We sent them off into the snow to play where they exhausted themselves with planks on their feet! Last year we went to Mosern near Seefeld in Austria and decided it was so nice we would return this year. We couldn't understand why last year's hotel the Mosererhof was fully booked but then found it had been pulled down! Anyway we stayed in a pension called the Spiegl and it was very comfortable with plenty of Schnapps flowing. Unfortunately some vile person decided to go into our room and steal 300 euros but I was determined not to let this spoil our holiday and I shall just have to work a couple of extra days to make it up.
There was some sunshine on our trip although not quite as good as last year. I walked a lot this year and really should have lost quite a few kilos but it doesn't seem to have happened. Perhaps the copious amounts of  heiße Schokolade mit Schlagobers had  something to do with it!
Here are some of the photos of this beautiful area.

The International Ladies.
Just like Narnia - now where is the witch?
We try to drink as many of the local specialities as possible so Ute was having two at a time.

Plenty of fluffy creatures to 'ooooh' over.









Yes it was cold
Massimo has the beers lined up!
We were determined to sit on the sun terrace on the mountain.
I love this picture.
The men were having fun.
The view from our deck chairs.
Off they went but I think they spent quite a bit of time in the bar having Hot Widows!
They are down there - near the middle of the picture.
We had lunch here.
