One of the highlights of our ski trip to Austria was on New Year's Day (Jan 1), we went on a horse drawn sleigh through the village and country side of the Schladming Dachstein area where we were staying. It was a one hour ride and just beautiful. It started snowing on the morning of the 1st so it felt extra special to be riding with the big snow flakes coming down on us. We weren't too cold as the sleigh had big wool blankets for us to cover ourselves with. Plus, our driver gave us some schnapps to help warm up our insides.

T and Curt rode up front with our sleigh driver while Curt's parents and sister, Lisa, were in the middle. I was in the back with the girls.
Ali actually fell asleep while sitting upright. We laughed as she fell asleep on the sleigh last year too. It must be a relaxing rocking feel for her.
Next up our my scenery shots.
Tall trees in the forest.
And below a tiny tree amongst all the huge ones. It reminded me of the Charlie Brown Christmas tree so I had to capture a shot of it.
