Recovery Day in Innsbruck

At the end of our third day of skiing, I nearly killed myself. I could hardly make it down a long run, and fell three times because my legs were so tired. Not a problem- we just took the next day off! We spent the afternoon in Innsbruck, Olaf's favorite city in Austria. He comes here on business sometimes, but this was my first visit.

There was a small Christmas market in the old town. We enjoyed plenty of glühwein (mulled wine), lebkuchen (gingerbread), and kaiserschmarn (pancakes with stewed plums).
The hotel where Olaf has stayed on business trips is in the photo above. It is the second building on the left, with painted bricks on the corner.
