~ Prague ~



I loved Prague! What a gorgeous city, with a great feel to it.  There is an apartment-hotel I can definately recommend to anyone interested!

 Prague Christmas Market  
In these big tubs were live carp for sale - people come and pick one, and it is caught, killed and cleaned right there for you.  There are these men with tubs all over the streets before christmas.

                     


~ Austria ~
On to Vienna for Christmas...

  The lights in the streets were beautiful in Vienna, like a big outdoor ballroom.
Mum and I went to the Christmas Eve midnight mass in St. Augustin's church in Vienna, it was so beautiful, with pipe organ and trumpet resonating through the stone hall...

  My friend from Norway, Eva (from Austria).  


Southern Austria, Lienz (Ost-Tirol)
~the only place we saw snow!! :)

 Our Gasthaus in Lienz, right next to a ski hill.

 The castle up the hill from our hotel

   

We took a gondola to the top of a ski hill (Grossglockner), the sun felt great! :)



The Italian Dolomites south of Lienz were amazingly beautiful, a great day-trip.
