Friday 13th, 5.32, -3.9dg, a little warmer outside the window this morning. The forecast for the next five days has changed overnight and they now say incoming snow on and off through until Tuesday. All good. Forecasting for the mountain a dusting of new snow. Freeze-thaw conditions (max 3°C on Fri morning, min -5°C on Fri night). Yesterday was the start of the celebration that is Fasching here in Schruns. "Gompiga Donnschtig" it was the turn of the children ,,, there were so many cutie boots dressed up to celebrate. The parade was amazing and the weather was glorious sunshine.. the parents and teachers go to so much effort. Well done . Next Tuesday it is the turn of the adults... that is a parade and social event not to be missed. Being a good girl I only indulged in a quick Gruner Veltliner with a girl that knobbled me as I was leaving, and then went home to finish prep for incoming family of five. It would be too easy to stay up in the Marktplatz and socialise, fab music full gas and a lot of milling people, but discretion and all that. Today is a simple day with only my Friday girls at 10.00, and a session in the cellar. I did actually smile this morning on reading an email from Van Lines, my prospective shipper... he suggested I need to downsize by 13% overall in order to fit into 40' but people seemingly do not read emails properly , either that, or my English is sadly lacking. I had asked about consignment or what he calls groupage.. well that is an entirely different set of rules for what I call the "overflow". Patience. This is my word for 2015. I hope to get out onto the Feld for a quickie early afternoon, back onto my skate skis, but I have strange muscle thingys going on.. as I knew I would because it is a totally different action to classic skis. WC from Vail has the men racing GS. This will be a fab race. Yesterday Anna Fenninger was a superstar.. absolute and without question. Happy happy Friday.
