Pix from #7

The first one was here.

How did we end up here?!?!?!!

More Pix of Skiing in Austria

The first views we got from the airport Innsbruck Austria

 First you ride the not so much 'bullet train'  Then the bus.  You'll see that below.

Some serious avalanche control at Galtur.

At Ishgl Bas broke his ski.

Yes broke!

Crazy Americans.  Good thing I was BEHIND the camera!

There is one in this picture.  Can you pick out who?

While we were there, we thought a stop off in Switzerland was a good idea. 

Watch out for customs on the way back home...

We're just about to head down there...  that is a couple thousand feet of steep blue prepped for the GS.  But there are thousands of skiers on that ice sheet with you!

I made it, and so did some of my friends...

Oh No.  The night skiing!

The Bus.

Where should we go next?

Our Swiss friend took us back to Switzerland for lunch...

Did you know they had heated seats on the chairs in Austria?

Every night there was a repair...  This night my ski had the repair.  Best yet, I got to take pictures while the master worked his magic!

Lots of work...

Whom might we find at our hotel bar???

Now that we're headed home.  (Missing english... I find humor in the signs on the train.)

The English use WC for potty. And they outlaw cell phones.  (well the sign says no, who knows what the law is?!?!>?)

Goulash

Okay, so it's been a LONG time since we've posted anything.

Here are the highlights -

Tucker's birthday was a powder day.
We went skiing in Austria.
Tucker went skiing in France.
I made goulash.

On our trip to Austria we met Ralf.  We also ate a lot of goulash.

Ralf told us that the goulash we were eating in the restaurants wasn't 'real' goulash and promised to send us a recipe when he arrived home in Berlin.  He did.  And I made it (half beef and half pork).  And it was delicious.  I even bought some bread from the 'Bavarian Bread Company' to serve with it (probably American but whole wheat and delicious).  Per Ralf's request - here are the photos.
***NO TABASCO WAS USED IN ANY MEAL PICTURED HERE***

Karyn posted... But it seems rather than adding a comment I would just comment.... (have you met me?)

I got the recipe from Ralf long before I got home.  When he told me he would send me a recipe, he said 'translated by me'.  As you would guess by the pictures and disclaimer he gently recommended NO TABASCO only several times in the 'translation'...  

As advertised (no tabasco) it was VERY good!  Thanks for the recipe Ralf.  We will be making this again!

-------No Tabasco was harmed or eaten during the filming or eating of this meal.-------
