Monday 5th Feb, 4.30, -7dg, out my window we have stars, mountain lights and light skiffy cloud. The flags are moving gently. Forecasting a little cloud clearing to sun later in the day. The last couple of days have been a mixed bag of snow all Friday, Saturday snow on and off with some sun and Sunday had glorious blue sky clouding over later in the day. Schools are now on holiday and I am always reluctant to ski in the holidays... I tend leave it up to the families as it is a safer option for me. This week is the start of Fasching here in Schruns, Kinder Faschingsumzug is this Thursday 8th at 14.30 so last night over the dinner table we set our plans for the week as we have a little on holidays. We also have early birthday plans underway in the house so the week will be a full gas week, with morning skiing squeezed in only on the blue sky days. On Saturday I was finally no longer a Krapfen virgin... It is something I have never eaten in all the years I have been living here and Faschingszeit ist Krapfenzeit! Would I cross the road to have another, no. The other half was donated to the little person sitting at the end of the table, but I have finally tasted one. Early morning walk on the schedule this morning, and boot bag plugged in for perhaps a two hour session on skis... perhaps.
