reports from Niederau

can I see the auhof in the top right hand corner of the photo of the beginner slopes?

I can't remember at the moment where it was, I know I saw it regularly though :)

Thanks Blodyn - I had the chance, but this was my first experience up a mountain and It took some time to get over the edges. From the panorama and the gondola red 19 did look do-able but I need a little more confidence :( its coming but I guess I need to practice more :)

Thanks to everyone who's put up reports and pictures so far - only three weeks to go for me!!

I have posted a few pictures on the facebook group from niederau....there's a couple from Auffach too (which is under the same lift pass) where the snow was even nicer! Im so jealous of you lot still waiting to go!!! :cry:

Now, a few more disclosures about our New Year visit.

I have said there were a coiuple of beginners in our group, so I was helping with organising ski hire and ski school. Rather red-faced, our friends appeared and said they had locked their credit cards in the safe! "Don't worry" says my frau, "Dave will pay for your ski school", Which indeed I did.

Half an hour later, our other friends informed us, they too had brought the "wrong" credit cards. You are ahead of me, I see. "Dave will pay"

Sometime after we returned home, I was trying to purchase an item online, and my card was rejected. When I phoned visa, they informed me they had stopped the card, due to unusual payment activity, abroad. Huh.

Another little gem, this time from a J2skier,...

" Saw Dave Mac ski today, very fast, you can't see daylight between his legs" (Why was she looking?)

To which came the reply....

"Yes, I saw Jan skiing tiday, also fast, you can see the Wilderkaiser range between his legs!"

:lol:

aw, dave mac, you give me away!
you ski so well i really COULDN'T see daylight between your legs!!

jan skis so well that when he passed me at top of tennladen, all i could see was a puff of powder!
