Austria in summer and autumn 2010

We at the Attersee (lake). I lived nearby this lake until I turned 20, then I moved to Linz.
The lady with the red bikini is my sister - she makes holidays with the kids at the Attersee, while Andreas and I are in Italy.

This is the so called Schlögener Schlinge, about half an hour drive from Linz. Unfortunately the weather wasn t that good at this day.

Autumn in Austria, here in front of our town house. These pictures were taken just a view days ago.

Holidays in Italy / August 2010

Some glimses from our annual Italian trip (without kids). It is a beautful country with lots of old houses and streets. As you can see on the two fotos with the cars, the streets are sometimes very narrow (I think they were rather designed for horses and not for cars), Nevertheless, these narrow streets are no one-way-streets!!!!

Holidays in Turkey/July 2010

Some pics from our Holiday in Turkey. A nice resort with great slides and lots of action. Hugo started waterskiing, both kids were bullriding (with a sheep), oing all kind of watersports, lots of food
sandy beach and nice weather. It was perfect.

Happy Skiing Family

The one and only ski day with snowfall

montain view on a snowy day

All in all we had gread holidays with lots of snow, sunshine, nice temperatures (between 2 and - 5 degree Celsius) a great view and lots of fun. The kids met some guys from Great Britain and had lots of fun with them in the hotel. There were days, when they went to bed even later then their partents (...maybe Andreas and me are getting old ...) and the best thing was, they practised their English skills.
