This time we're in Obergurgl!

Where? Yes in Obergurgl. It lies at 1800 metres above sea level in the Ötztal in Austria, just south of Sölden... and I can tell you it's great here! My girlfriend and I booked an apartment for the two of us, although it's actually a 6 persons apartment, but we got it for half the money, I like last-minute booking ;-)

This morning we went up the mountain. Because of the hight of the area, the snow is still pretty fresh, luckily the rain of last week didn't have much impact on the conditions here. Today was a very sunny day and even a bit warm, which was very relaxing ;-)


First day on a snowboard since almost a year ago, but that wasn't a problem at all. It's just like riding a bicycle. Once you get the hang of it you'll never forget how to ride.

The weather prognosis for this week is a bit warm and sunny until Tuesday and then the temperatures start to drop, especially at the end of the week. 
In the middle of the week probably a fresh layer of snow. Hopefully at least 20 centimeters, fingers crossed! :-)
