Day 156 — Great skiing; world conversations
05-January-1972 (Mittwock—Wed.)
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.

Day 155 — I’m in a fog; I’m naked next to a girl
04-January-1972 (Dienstag—Tue.)
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.”

Day 153 — St. Anton, Skiing Day 1
02-January-1972 (Sun.)
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.

Day 140 — Skiing, Elisabeth, naked men in a sauna
20-December-1971 (Mon.)
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.

Day 139 — Innsbruck: Seegrube Ski School
19-December-1971 (Sun.)
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!
