              My last
              day of ski class brings me a full day of skiing with
              beautiful weather. At night, I go dancing. Did I meet
              someone?

              Today is
              an amazing day of skiing that brings me down the
              backside of the mountain and many miles away from St.
              Anton. How amazing is that?
              
              
At dinner, I come face-to-face with the emotion behind the conflict in Northern Ireland between the Irish Catholics and the British. At the same dinner table. A true-life learning experience.

              I’m in a
              fog today. Literally. As I don’t want to ski off of a
              cliff, I decided to spend the whole day with the ski
              class. I talk about money a bit.
              
              
Oh, and one of my fantasies almost comes to life—standing naked next to a beautiful girl in a white nurse's outfit, next to a sign that says “Massage.”

              A quality
              day of ski lessons and skiing at St. Anton and the
              cable car to Valhalla. Nice.

              My first
              day of skiing at the wonderful resort of St. Anton,
              an international skiing mecca for the rich and famous
              (and a poor American student studying in Vienna). I
              take ski lessons again and spend the day skiing all
              over St. Anton. Nice.

              I have an
              extremely long journal post today. Why? I love
              Innsbruck. It was an incredible fun-filled day. From
              rain in Innsbruck to snow in Seegrube, to the extreme
              but pleasant torture of an Innsbruck health
              spa—complete with sauna, cold bath, hot and cold foot
              and body baths, and naked men in saunas.
              
              
There is only one Austrian in my ski class. She is a good-looking Austrian girl, Elisabeth. She becomes my skiing partner and a welcomed source of information on Innsbruck. When I said, “Where can I run around naked with a bunch of old men?,” she was right there pointing me to the health spa. Only kidding.

              My first
              day of skiing in the Austrian Alps is at Seegrube. I
              take lessons to improve my paralleling—after all this
              is Austria. If they can’t teach me to ski, no one
              can. I love it. I love the fresh air. Just thinking
              about it, I want to go back. Right now!
