A whole week on the go

The first week back in Vienna after more than three weeks in Vorarlberg was characterised by adaptation back to the “normal” life as a small family. Jakob got soon used to his bed again (even though we lowered it in order to reduce the risk of him falling out), enjoyed the while range of his toys and the walks in the Prater. On Saturday he tested the sport-seat of Valentin’s Bugaboo and as our little treasure enjoyed the view and was much calmer than in his bassinet. Hence we changed his setting as well and from Sunday onwards he is being pushed around in his cool seat in which he already on the first day slept for almost 4 hours. Markus did only heard about that, as he disappeared on Sunday morning for a whole week first attending his firm’s 15th Austrian investor conference in Kitzbuehel and spent the days from Tuesday until Sunday with some clients and colleagues skiing in Lech.

This view could only be enjoyed on Wednesday


The event in Lech has after 9 years become traditional by now and is always a great fun and experience as ski guides (one of which is Harry who he was with to weeks ago) lead the bunch of crazy skiers to undiscovered slopes off-piste. The small group that arrived already on Tuesday night was luckiest as they enjoyed a perfect day on the slope on Wednesday with blue sky and sunshine. Wednesday night it started snowing and so the Thursday offered fresh powder, but fog and continuous snowfall spoiled the party cutting visibility significantly. The weather forecasts indicate improvement for Friday and thus the whole group is hoping for great off-piste skiing that day. They for sure will finish all their food today in order to guarantee good weather.

Jakob, Kerstin & Markus
