The view from my "office"

Glorious weather to be a tourist in my own city while showing it off to an overseas visitor

Yesterday was just the warm up act - today there is at least 75cm snow in Oberammergau.

Yesterday's office on Queen Mary 2 in the Arabian Sea checking for subs and missiles. Right near the Iran border.

Today we drove through heavy snow to Ludwig's Schloss.

On the way back to Oberammergau we came upon an accident where a van had slid off the rad in the heavy snow fall, and taken out a power pole. There was a bus and several vehicles at all sorts of angles. Once we ensured everyone was ok, did a 3 point turn and found an alternative route. It was a tough day's driving though on very slippery roads, the like of which I never encounter back home.

I've never been that fussed about snow, but this is stunning. I guess the castle plays a part too.
