Everyone has to eat! (Bad Gastein, Austria)

In Austria, the lunch spots are run by families and not the resorts! They all have large balconies with sun chairs on them! And of course, Austrian menus...lunch was a bit of a mystery, but overall, we ate very well!

And now, its time to reveal some truths. Say what you want about global warming, its happening in Austria. The snow is only high up...in fact everything I was reading about Lake Tahoe at the time and their snow woes, was happening here. Very little snow at the lower elevations, and the resorts are having a very slow season to say the least.

The lack of snow is more evident in this picture. Jason is actually standing in the fog line, but you can see the valley floor behind him, and guess what? Its totally brown. Hardly any snow in sight! (Doesn't Jason look happy anyway?)
