Sleigh Ride to a Restaurant

Today was a leisurely day. Brief trip to the clinic so that the Dr. could  check Duffy's leg.  Not much to report except that she has to go back in another 3 days.  It doesn't seem to bother her at all, though I'd be the first to admit it looks awful.  It will take a long time to heal.

We spent the day relaxing and got into our warmest weather gear for the sleigh ride up the mountain to a lovely restaurant, the Roseg Gletscher, where we received a very warm welcome!  They even presented Gaby with a little stuffed fox that she instantly fell in love with!  

Our two strong horses, Marta and Elvis, took about an hour to get us to the top of the mountain!  KC slept the whole way, but Gaby was up for most of it!  We even saw several deer!  

The food was yummy and offered a wide variety of delicious dishes.  Grant had the most exotic order which included Boar.  Gaby got adventure club eating points for trying the boar.  She thought it was pretty good.. Bill and Duffy had Wiener schnitzel (delicious) and I had spaghetti with meat sauce. Gaby had pasta and ate every bite.  Mimi went with onion soup and smoked salmon.  Everyone really enjoyed everything and the atmosphere couldn't be any better!  We actually
visited this restaurant three years ago when we were here in the summer, but it was lunch and absolutely packed the day we came.  Tonight it was just us and two other couples and the service was excellent.  The ride back was quicker then going up.  I think the horses knew there were oats at the end of the line!  

Off to bed since we have to be up early tomorrow for our family curling lessons!










It was cold but we had enough stuff on that no one suffered!



They even found tulips somewhere!






Enjoyed dining on mashed bananas.




A lovely evening.....
