The next exciting days I spent together with the family in a small village in the country side where the grandparents have a house. To reach this place we went through a valley called "Wachau" where the river Danube runs through. It is famous for the grapes and the apricots planted there and the wine they make there is really delicios I was told. This valley is an UNESCO site, too (by the way, Schönbrunn castle and the city center of Vienna are also WHS, so I already visited 4 of them. Great, hm??), unfortunately it was already too dark for taking photos.
When we reached the house it became a bit lighter again. Guess why? Yep, all the fields and meadows where covered with something sparkling & white: SNOW!!! The first time in my ant-life that I saw snow!
The other day the kids took me outdoors with them and we spent hours playing in this strange white stuff. We had the sledge with us and it was really exciting to ride down the hills! I couldn't get enough of it and since the boys loved it, too we went up and down a few dozens of times! Luckily I've got my scarf, otherwise I think it would have become pretty cold there. I wanted to take some of the snow with me to show it to you, Aliah, but I was told that this would properbly be not so successfull...
Well, after this exciting weekend, I really need a rest today!
Love, Siti
