Culture and Skiing

Two weekends ago I went to the Frankischer Schweiz area of Bavaria. We stayed for 1 night in a small town in a valley. There were castles all over the ridges. We went to look at one that was first built in the 1000s. We also looked at a big old church and monastery.

I thought it was interesting that the culture in Über Bayern and the Fränkische Schweiz was very different, even though they are so close together. People in Franken don't speak Bavarian but they have their own dialect. They also build their houses in a different way to Bavarians. There are lots of small breweries in the area as well.







Last weekend I went skiing on Stubai Glacier in Austria. It is about 2 hours away from our house. It is 3210 metres above sea level! We stayed in a nice apartment at the bottom of the mountain and caught a cable car up every day. It was a very beautiful mountain with lots of rocks and a great view from the top.
