Today we had a really fun adventure!
We took a cog train ride to the top of a very high mountain.

The lady selling tickets said there was light fog and some snow. When we got to the mountain it was all in the clouds. I guess when you are in the clouds it is called fog and when you are under the clouds it is a cloud. Or so it seems.

It was very cold and windy up there and it was very hard to see anything in front of you even.
But, suddenly the clouds cleared up a bit and we could see the blue sky and some buildings further up the hill!

So we walked up the hill to see what we could see. We could see the land way below and the big lake. It was very pretty so granny took me out of her nice warm bag and plopped me on the very cold and snowy column to take my photo. I hope you like it.

We took the train ride back down the mountain it takes about 40mins to get up and down

Here is a photo of me sitting in the train engine. That was very exciting to do, I am such a lucky bear, what a great day.

We went on to Hallsett a beautiful town on a lake snuggled into the mountain side. We took some photos of me by the lake. When we parked the car in the car park, granpaul found and old building with no one living there. Granny went on to the lake while he took a photo of it.

Here I am at the lake looking with the town behind me

Here I am sitting by some ducks.

There are some swans here too. I am a still a little afraid of them. They still look very big to me, but I am not as afraid of them as I was when I was in Amsterdam in Holland.

Granny found a swan’s feather and she gave it to me to put in my red ribbon bow tie. I think it is very pretty don’t you? Swans are pretty birds even if they are a bit big.

After lunch as we were leaving town granny bought me a felt hat with the favorite flower of both Germany and Austria stitched on it and it has a pretty feather too.

Granny and Granpaul says we are now on our way to Hungary. That is another country. We are going to meet more friends there.
