Lynette & Mario fly in the afternoon from Nice, and we meet at Cafe Weimar for bubbles before going for a bite at Glasweise closeby.

Take chair lift with Trude at midday when warmest. Walk round the old berry path, now very berryless, and arrive at the relatively busy Alm, due to close on Monday until Christmas. Each gulaschsuppe, then head down in cooler weather…
Day starts overcast and freezing, but suddenly around 11 the clouds open to a beautiful clear sky. We walk round the lake, cadging a coffee at Tchatcheria before stopping briefly at Spar. Trude even sunbathes on the balcony.
Freezing walk to Tschabitscher, before driving off at 2pm to Radweg. Most enjoyable dinner party with Christoph and Romy, Diana and Felix, Nini?, Gerhardt and wife. Back home late.
Off to the Speckfest at Hermagor, where chocolate liquor was bought along with other presents. And hot fricka tried. Afterwards coffee at Semmelrock. Back at Weißensee Mungo goes schwammelling, I go to Stonelounge. Cold but sunny day.
