Winter Wonderland in Steiermark

We drove down south to our friends in Eibiswald which is near the Slovenian border. Snow has been predicted for all of Austria down to the valleys. We had a bit of sleet on the way but it will probably come overnight. In the evening we went into town to visit our friend at work at a guesthouse. He has just started there after his previous employer sold the other guesthouse nearby. It is a very old building (see extra) with the bar and restaurant beautifully appointed with traditional Austrian decor. Outside in the garden was a fairyland and I have added more extras. There were plenty of fire pits and hot punch to keep warm. The second extra shows Hubby buying me a hot punch. I had to steady the camera on a table top and ours had a fire underneath so we were as warm as toast. If the promised snow arrives I may have to go back and take more photos.
