Today we went back to Vienna, but before our train left was still lot of time. We had to leave our apartment at 10am. My father went cross - country skiing while the rest of us went to Mayrhofen ( the city). We went to the Post Cafe to eat something and heat us up, because we were could. At 1pm we went to the railway station to catch our train back to Vienna. My father was already waiting for us there. When we came to Vienna I was so tired that I had to go to bed.
I totally forgot to tell you that at the 23rd the whole snow melted in the valley where we stayed. I felt like it was Spring and not Winter. But today it finally snowed. Not the whole day though. It started out with rain and in the afternoon it turned to snowfall. We should have a race today with the ski school, but the visibility in the snowfall was so bad that they cancelled it. But we got our medals for the first place anyway. It was our last day which meant that my brother and I had to give back the skies we rented. Over there we both got a key chain. We usually get a small present every year.
Finally it was christmas eve. We skied like usual and then went home for the evening. We decorated a small christmas tree and about 4:30pm we went to the church. Well not exactly to the church. We went to a place where kids sang christmas songs and all others sang along. We do this every year. After that we went to Hotel Neuwirth where where we usually stay in. The people already know us and invited us to nice, warm place to have dinner my parents ordered before. I was really hungry, because we didn't have a proper lunch. All we had was Apfelstrudel, Germknödel and Kaiserschmarren all typical delicious sweet meals in Austria. Don't think that I ate this all by myself! We shared. The reason is the custom not to eat any meat until the evening. My dead said that there is a myth who doesn't eat meat can se a golden piglet in the evening. 
We went to the cabelway and I hoped it would be workin this time, but it didn't. The cableway didn't work, because of some failure after the wind from yesterday, so we had to go to Rastkogel again. But this time we couldn't find our skiing group. So I had to ski with my parents. When we were about to ride down the Panorama Abfahrt, we met my group. So at the end I could ride with them. But one thing ruined the day for me. There was fog and wind blowing on my glasses. The snow joined the wind and I was at the end. I couldn't see anything anymore. It wasn't long until lunch finally started. After lunch everyone, exept my father, wanted to go home. That's what we did. We then went to Mayrhofen and bought some things. When we came home my father was already home. We then still watched a movie on TV. The bad thing is that Tom Turbo and Die Rätsel des Pharao are only Saturdays and Sundays. The weird thing was that I didn't feel like it was almost Christmas, because I normally do feel it. But only this year not.
Well remember the storm from yesterday? The storm made today very different to me. We usually go skiing in Penken, but today we had to go skiing in Rastkogel. The storm was also today and the storm made the gondola move, so the didn't started it. We had to take a bus to Rastkogel. There my brother and I had to wait for the rest of my skiing group. The kids still had to get to their parents that waited in the restaurant in Penken. So we first were skiing in Rastkogel and when it was almost time to meet with the parents we went the Panorama Abfahrt which leads us to Penken. There I met my parents. I ate Germknödel, witch is one of my favorite meals that they have here. 
Skiing in the morning still went normal. But after lunch, while I was skiing with my parents, the weather got worse. Our skiing started just like in the morning. We rode our most popular "Nordhang" downhill piste with red difficulty. It was kind of icy, but good to ride anyway. A small wind started when we were on the lift. When we all got of the lift my mother and brother quited. They were tiered and cold. My father and I still had fun even though the wind started to get stronger. When my father and I also gave up the wind was so strong that we hardly could ride down the course to the lift that takes us back home. There are two sections of cabin lifts down the valley. The upper lift was out of service and first I was wondering why, but when I noticed the storm again I understood why. It was out service because the wind was too strong and it would be very dangerous to transport skiers. Meanwhile my father and I were skiing down to the lower lift my mother and brother were caught in the upper lift. They were shaking back and forth in that lift. At the end we both arrived at the bus at the same time. When we came home
I was in very good mood and went out to play with my brother. We first didn't know what to play but then we started to roll down a hill in the powder snow which was kind of fun. After all that playing and rolling I got super tired. In the winter I never can really get rid of my jet lag. So does the rest of us. We go to bed at 7pm and wake up at 5am. That hasn't changed for about 5 years and I don't know if it will ever change until we move back to Vienna.
Like always my brother and I woke up at 4:00am. We were really hungry, so we went to the kitchen to get some food. Not too long after that my parents also woke up. The whole family ate breakfast. Because it was a Sunday, we watched Tom Turbo and Die Rätsel des Pharao. Tom Turbo is a detective series. You have to answer some questions and write down the letter that is next to it and at the end you read the word backwards. That gives you a word that you can e-mail to them or call them and say the word. They will tell you if it's correct or not and you get a chance to win something. In Die Rätsel des Pharao, kids and parents play against each other. They have to play games and who ever gets the most points is the whiner. Anyway after all the watching we went to borrow the sky gear for us kids. My parents signed us up for a skiing school. After that we went up to the mountain. Up there the other kids in the ski school were waiting and gathering. I was in the same group as my brother. The group was really slow. The teacher said that I'm going to be in a different group tomorrow. The ski school was first from 10am - 12am and then from 1pm - 3pm. I went only from 10am - 12am and afternoon I went skiing with my parents. It was way warmer with my parents than with the ski school because we were skiing faster. 
After that we went home and watched a movie called Lapislasuli. I don't understand the name, but I liked it. The movie was kind of weird too, because the main actors were girl from our time and a bear man looking like neanderthaler. The neanderthaler helped the girl because she has got lost in the mountains. After this movie I was really tired and went to bed.
After we arrived in Vienna, my family and I took a taxi at 6:30 in the morning and drove to the Westbahnhof. The ÖBB (Österreichische Bundes Bahn) took us to Jenbach after about 5 hour ride. There we had to change trains. We didn't have alot of time, because the train that we had before was delayed. But we did it. This was a shorter ride. It was only 1 hour long. We went to Mayrhofen with this train. Taxi took my father and the suitcases to the house we stayed in. The rest of us went to Hervis in Mayrhofen. Hervis is a sport shop. My mother bought me pants and a jacket for the winter, because my outfit from last year is already too small and I really needed one or I would freeze in the snow. Then we also went to the house we stayed in. It was colder in this house than in the one we stayed in last year.
