Jaunt to Ma. Taferl

For Mother's Day my sister's and mine present was a short trip either to Vienna or to Maria Taferl. Our mum decided the latter. Therefore we made this jaunt last weekend. The weather wasn't the best but we were in good humour. For lunch we went down to the river Danube were we had excellent food in the restaurant of one of mum's school day friends. It's been a nice trip.

Après Ski Season Closing Party

We digged up our traditional costumes for the big 'après ski season closing party' that took place on friday evening. That way prepared we headed through the town to the party cellar. The space was already well filled. We started the evening with a round of the famous 'Nageln'. In this game you get a nail that has to be knocked in a stump with a stonemaison's hammer. The tricky thing is that you have to beat the nail with the chisel-shaped blade of the hammer. To get the nails we had to drink some Schnapps :-) That was the beginning of a funny and amusing long night.
