Christmas Day dawned cold and snowless, we were hoping it would be snowing but we had snow on the ground so we couldnt complain.
After ripping off the expensive wrapping paper we found lots of little treasures that we were very happy with, Mia loved her carousel and Riley his little nut cracker man and me my pottery which i hope will still look like this when the plane lands in Darwin.
While the maid slaved the rug rats waited and waited and waited, here they are waiting for me to bring out the rest of the food so we can dig in. They did set the table. The weather at this point was rainy and windy.
We had a quiet but good day and on boxing day we packed to make the trek to the airport. This is what the slopes now looked like after 2 days with no snow....we couldnt toboggan anymore.
Walking to the bus stop.
We caught the 150 to Salzburg then it was onto the number 2 to the airport then a British Airways flight to London Riley video'd from the plane and got some great footage of the snow covered Alps and France. Arrived in old London town at 2pm and caught the Gatwick express to Victoria station....It should not be called express, a turtle would have moved faster and we stood the whole way because it was packed liked a tin of sardines. At Victoria station i decided i'd had enough of crowded trains so we caught a London cab to Dukes road in Kings Cross and checked into the hotel which is across the road from Euston station. The weather here is sunny but cold. Customs was again an unsettling experience, lots of personel questions etc delivered in a bitchy tone....i may write a letter to that mob. Austria was beautiful and i'm glad we spent christmas there but it is nice to back where they speak english. Only 3 more sleeps and we will be back home....it's gone fast.
