Since the year 2011 we remember 15th of October very well. We do also commemorate the day and usually spend the closest weekend to enjoy it. This year we choose a tiny little place called Gössing (or Gössing an der Mariazeller Bahn in full) which consists of 1 or 2 farm houses and a great old fashioned hotel. The better side of the hotel offers rooms with a wonderful view to Ötscher (from Slavic Otče = Father) peak. It’s also a perfect place to start various tours around. One we would definitely recommend is the Ötschergraben tour (known as Austrian Grand Canyon) which can be performed during one day also in combination with lunch at the Vorderötscher Schutzhaus.
Walk around Lindkogel
Lovely warm weather on 6th of October invited us to visit the nature. We picked up the near and easy “Badener Lindkogel Wanderweg” and extended its suggested 7,6 km by another three or so. Especially the extension to Rauheneck castle ruins was a good choice as from the preserved castle tower, some beautiful views can be enjoyed. On the way back down the hill, we stopped by a place called Vila Eugen. This is basically a “schloss” lately occupied by Erzherzog Eugen descendant of Maria Theresia. Nowadays something like hypnotisation and soul correction could be found there.
Windsurfing in Croatia
Not to miss our favourite summer destination, we went to Croatia also this year. This time on a special mission we stayed on Krk in Krk (the main town holds the island’s name 🙂 from 17th till 25th of August. Krk town lies just next to Punat and in between there is one of the well-known Windsurfing destinations. Of course, you should be a member of a Golf club, to get in there. Luckily we managed and could finally practise the lovely wind-salty sport endless.
Sziget Festival, Budapest
Summer and festivals somehow come together. This year we wanted to refresh some of the old memories and therefor went to Budapest. Sziget Festival on Island of Freedom, 9th and 10th of August. 2 Days of great music experience and more. With our friends Senko, Tomas & Julka and Wolfgang we enjoyed the performances of Lana Del Rey, Gorillaz, Parov Stelar, Bonobo and definitely also those others.
Vacation in Paguera, Mallorca
And the long awaited days are finally here. From 31.7. to 7.8. we decided to go for a vacation on Mallorca. Of course, these days everyone goes there, why shouldn’t we? But that was certainly not the reason. On the other hand with so many tourists heading there, we paid special attention to pick up the right place. And we found it! Small town of Paguera without the rush of Palma suburbs, gave us all long restful days full of happiness and joy. In a combination with excellent services of the hotel Coronada, we couldn’t dream more!
Kiss Wedding in Krasnany
The big day “D” for our friends Tomas and Lenka, that’s 23rd of June 2018. Wedding, by its nature is supposed to be a special event. When it takes place in a romantic castle of Krasnany, surrounded by a great garden and lasts for 2 days, then it definitely is a special one. Dear Kiss Family, thank you very much for the invitation, we enjoyed your celebration a lot!
Laxenburg park
10th of June, another sunny day here in Vienna. Although the Brazilian national football team came to play a friendly with the “österreichische elf”, we decided to go outside the city. As close as 25 km lies a small town of Laxenburg with its beautiful park. The dominant in the park is a Franzensburg castle situated on an island in the middle of castle tajch. The best way, how to enjoy the view on castle (favourite summer residence of Habsburgs), is to rent a motor boat and explore the tajch.
Ibiza, Ibiza
Once there was a Stag party. Some may remember well, others maybe less but it has been accomplished. Early in the morning on 19th of May a group of 8 (so called “Kiss Army”) successfully boarded on a plane heading to Ibiza. Exciting 4 days of adventure were fulfilled at lunch on 23rd of May back at the same Airport. Such a huge mass of energy, passed by so quickly. Luckily no one’s got injured, nothing was harmed. We all enjoyed it and survived.
Sankt Gallen, Gesäuse
And the first post is here! Please enjoy. Longer Austrian weekend from 10th to 13th of May we spent in a small village of Sankt Gallen (Styria, not the one in Switzerland 8) which is a part of Gesäuse National Park. We have been hiking in the park and completed around 40 km, all mainly uphill. A beautiful piece of country!
