Climb Every Mountain!

Well we truly are in the 'Sound of Music' territory! We did a bit of yodelling, some 'Lonely Goatherd' and 'Edelweiss', (although struggled with some of the words) and dragged the kids up one of the local peaks, Grubhorndl (1747m). I have to confess we didn't start at the bottom but took the cable car part way up. (The boys took their bikes and parked them for a good downhill run after the walk... which was so good they took the cable car up and did it again!)

We said 'Hello' to a few friendly cows, admired the scenery and the many 'hasta la vista' points and bribed the kids with pastries from the local Konditorei. It was fantastic.

In the evening we loafed around Lofer (sorry!) where they have a street market every Tuesday. There was music, food, beer, bouncy castle, kids entertainment and face painting. All very agreeable!
