I had mentioned to Carolyn I was interested in going on a hike while I was in Austria - I heard the scenery was not to be missed. She found out about a toboggan slide/roller coaster located at the top of a mountain just outside of Graz. So on Monday, we hopped on a bus that took us 11 km outside of the city. We hiked up the mountain and found a great little surprise! The hike was no joke - it took us close to 2 hours, but I think it was well worth it. We went in the morning and it was a bit hazy, but the view really was beautiful - nothing like we could see in Houston!

Pivotal point of the hike...

Now it was time to reward ourselves with some FUN!
It was time for the SCHOECKL!!!
Getting ready for the ride of our lives - ha!
Each car was separate and you could control the speed
by applying and releasing pressure on the handles
Literally on the mountain, super fun - we went twice
Y'all look to beautiful and glitzy to be hiking! Unbelievable photos - so gorgeous!
