Winter vacation in Austria


Recently I went with my family to Austria for a ski vacation. I am not an experienced skier but my husband was sure I would enjoy it. He thought with a good ski instructor I would learn all the necessary skills and we would have a great time.
 So we went to a Zillertal, a mountain region located not too far from Innsbruck.Innsbruck is a great place for winter sports and it hosted the Olympic games twice already.
 We stayed in the small town of Zell am Ziller. This is a really beautiful and very peaceful place. 
The weather was unusual for this region and time of year. There was so much snow that I was wondering if the pilot of our aircraft can see the runway. But everything went smooth and we had a really great week of skiing in a beautiful mountains and snow.
 It was fun watching the little kids learning how to ski. 
 They can be as young as 3 or 4 years old but they can already ski. Sometimes they are skiing much better than their parents! My oldest daughter really enjoyed skiing and I am sure my little boy will too. He is too young for this now but in a year or two he will be skiing there among these little kids. 

We liked our vacation so much, I am sure we will be back! 
 Vacations are great for relaxing and  awakening your creativity. 
This one made me feel good and full of new ideas!
