ehrwalder alm, tirol, AT

skiing with my daughter + her boyfriend in the rain below the zugspitze (2962m) in tirol, austria. the ski area goes from 1,110m to 1,950m and we've had a temperature between +2°C and +7°C. it is the sunny (southern) side of the zugspitze massif and yes, later came the sun as well 🌞

on the way back home, we've tried out the ski lift feeling inside the car .... yes, we have heated our seats and opened the panorama roof ....  morons we, i've been 3 days sick after that  ... DO NOT TRY IT in winter time, my dears ⛄
