Ski Trip #1
Our second ski trip of the season was to Lech, Austria. Kyle, Tiffany, Matt, Kiley and I stayed at a great B&B called Haus Teresia.
The Three Bears...(Matt, Ashley, and Kiley)
Common Room- we made dinner in the kitchen and ate it here one night
Creepy (rat-like) Kangaroo
As we were a bit more confident after having a weekend of skiing under our belts, the camera went with us on the mountain. We mostly stuck to blue runs and enjoyed not having to work quite as hard on the red runs that we primarily skied in Garmisch the weekend before. Enjoy the pictures!

Breathtaking Scenery- It was literally amazing to be completely surrounded by these beautiful mountains.
On the ski lift...
There was a creek running through the town. The street were lined with hotels/restaurants and some athletic stores.
My (Ashley's) lunch- clearly not what I was expecting:)
This was only Matt's third day of skiing- EVER! He learned quickly and did really great. Most importantly, he really enjoyed it, so we will be skiing a lot in the next couple of years- yay!!

Calling it a day...
On our second day, the weather got a bit worse. It was snowing pretty heavily on the mountain and visibility wasn't as good; however, we still had a great time skiing and had a really good lunch at a restaurant on the mountain. Matt and I had homemade beef soup and "Alpine" Macaroni, made of noodles, cheese, tomatoes, ham, and mushrooms.
Luckily, we were warned in advance by the hotel owners that when the weather turns bad, cars are required to have chains on their tires. So on Day 2, we took a shuttle from the hotel to the ski lift instead of driving. On the way back to our car, we saw a line of cars either putting chains on their tires or getting a ticket for not having chains.
Thanks to everyone who helped outfit us for our ski trips! We stayed warm and dry and had a blast!
