Austrian Hospitality


Look at the coat of white our blue car got from the minute we pulled over until the time we climb up the stairs and look back. It was really snowing in late May.

We stayed at Austria Hof Lodge in Mammoth Lakes, a stone's throw from the gondola ride and all the skiing.

I took this picture and the one above it when we were checking out on our third day.

Here's Mammoth mountain from the lodge. It's really so close. The lodge's website indicates it's 200 yards away, which my husband and I seem to disagree. It feels much much closer than 200 yards.
