Over the Martin Luther King 3-day weekend, Matt and I went on our squadron's ski trip to Innsbruck, Austria. Since we've had a strange winter with not much snow, we weren't sure how much snow would be on the slopes. It turns out, there wasn't any at the place we had originally planned to snowboard, so our group ventured off a bit to a mountain with a glacier about 45 minutes away from our hotel. The snow at the Stubai Glacier was awesome and we had a great time snowboarding over the weekend. The weather was beautiful (we took our coats and hats off and ate lunch outside) and the slopes were fairly empty, so everyone had a fantastic time. The above picture is of Amy and Rylee, our squadron commander's daughter, out on the slopes.
For our apres ski (after ski fun) on Saturday, we found an Irish pub not too far from our hotel and managed to drink a few pints of Guiness and hang out with everyone in the group. This picture of Matt and Boose (Boose is obsessed with the 80's--which explains the Kiss shirt) was taken inside the pub.
On Sunday afternoon, a group of us went to watch a national league hockey game in the Olympic 
arena. The game was anti-climactic, but we were able to chuckle for a while about this advertisement painted on the side of the ice rink. We all agreed that you couldn't write something that funny!

On Sunday night, Matt and I went out for Indian food and afterwards found a great wine bar near our hotel. We tasted a few Austrian wines with some friends and of course, told lots of stories. This picture of us was taken inside the wine bar.
