So, almost over the cold. Another day. Plenty of time before we open. The winter art workshops are slowly making their minimum. Yea! This is going to be great.
We did so much in Austria and I’m trying to figure out what to say next. We have loads of pictures which I’ll put up before the workshops begin.
My German came back. Well most of it. People kept on complimenting me on how well I spoke German. I def. understood more than I could speak. Passive language skills always outstrip active language skills. Just look at any child.
How would I do this vacation differently if given the change? Glad you asked. First I would immediately head off for 4 days of skiing, just to get my body used to it. Then I’d go for a long massage and a soak. Next I’d spend 2 weeks site seeing and then I’d go for a good 6 day skiing holiday. Much better. I’d also rent an apartment rather than stay at all these hotels. Though I’d def. stay at the hotels we stayed at again, I think it’d be cheaper to cook our own food. Those cafes were expensive. 40 E every time we stepped into one. That’s $60 USD. It didn’t matter if it were lunch or dinner. Plus, I think I’d eat more at the Christ Kindl Marts.
We are ready for the art workshops. This is going to be a good year. We already have tons of people signed up for the Quilt and Winter Workshops, not to mention the Spring, Summer and Fall ones.
Well, more later.
