It’s another cold, foggy day in the Zugspitze Arena. However, the mountain tops are visible all around us. It’s just beautiful. After saying goodbye to Renate, we stop at Spar and stock up on picnic supplies—the stores are closed on Sunday. It’s just now starting to rain. We stop at McD’s in Reutte, check the internet and have a cappuccino. We’ve decided to drive to Salzburg going the northern route through Garmisch, up the autobahn a bit, then east through Bad Tolz. We start looking for a zimmer in the Schlierzee region—another ski resort. On the outskirts of Josefstal, we find Gastehaus Gritscher. Our hostess offers us a large apartment for 60 euros, mit Fruhstuck (breakfast). She also owns the Backerei next door so I’m sure breakfast will be great.

As night sets in, I take a walk in the light rain (it’s 4 degrees). As I’m walking, the bells on the cows and in the church start ringing simultaneously. Love it! After a lite dinner, with beer and wine, of course, we call it a night. We expect snow at about 1,300 meters tonight--we're at 1,000 meters. Burr! Time to cuddle under our down comforters.
