Day 46 Garmisch-Partenkirchen


 On our last full day in Germany we enjoyed another great day of skiing in the Alps. Today we went to nearby Hausberg, a part of the Garmisch Classic Ski Area. The snow is a bit behind this year and only a small portion of the mountain was open. Snow conditions reminded us more of East Coast granular on packed powder (ice) but the sun was shining and we were together. In fact, the familiarity of the snow made us feel a little closer to home. There were no lines and the 6 person chair moved swiftly. We skied until our legs hurt. We had lunch on the deck. Then we skied some more - all while surrounded by breathtaking views. The warmth of the sun blended with the warm memories of our exciting adventure together. A perfect last day. We hope you have enjoyed the blog. Thank you for reading along. We know that we are blessed to have had this experience. None of this would be possible without the generosity of Barry and Wendy Roland, whose continued support of the Burr and Burton teachers helps to make our school the special place that it is.
