Austria, The Alps, and a day of relaxation

   

We arrived in Vienna last night from St.Anton on the ICE Train (the nicest train I've been on ever btw). We spent the past two days traveling to and skiing/snowboarding in St.Anton em Arlberg. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G doesn't even begin to explain how bad ass this place is. Tricia took a lesson with Tikva. Summer, Stefan and I went straight to the top. We stayed with Stefan in Imst. His family has a wonderful ski hut which we hung out in too. Tricia had a great time and is convinced that we'll hit the slopes together next time we're in Vermont. I tried to take lots of pictures! Take a peek at the Flickr feed.

Today we tried to lay low. We were tired after skiing and traveling all day. We bought some delicious food at the Naschmarket and then viewed films at the Film Museum. My favorites were Le Voyage à travers l'impossible by Georges Méliès and Standard Gauge by Morgan Fisher. Fisher's film in particular reminded me of WayMarker. Not because Fisher is into wearable mobile technology, rather, both Standard Gauge and WayMarkr attempt to look at the beauty in the images which we discard or pass by.
