This is Mr X (and myself) waiting for the bus to take us up to Stubai Glacier Saturday morning. Those are our rental snowboards. They were awful things, but hey they worked.
This was the view from the top of the mountains. It was incredible.
Me getting ready to go...
Me snowboarding (in my new jacket that doesn't really match my pants - oh well).
Mr X caught a particularly fantastic crash of mine here...I just kind of 'windmilled' down the slope.
We stopped at one point to rest and warm up with some hot chocolate.
Mr X snowboarding. I never am lucky enough to catch him crashing on camera. First of all it's a rare thing and secondly I'm usually in the process of crashing myself.
This was our lunch. Pommes mit wurst. It's pretty good when you're so hungry and cold.
This was a desert we shared. Apfel Streudel mit Vanillasauβ. It was tasty, though we both agreed that we prefer our strudel straight up rather than doused in vanilla sauce.

I just wanted to point out that it is impossible to tell that your coat doesn't match your pants if you are crashing in all the pictures. In fact I couldn't tell in any of them... but, it is especially hard when your bottom half is buried in snow. :)
Glad you recovered form the T-bar fiasco. And thanks for the warning -- I am never trying them.
Are you going to go snowboarding at Christmastime with us? Soldier doesn't have any of those crummy T-Bars! :-)
Ya, Mr X called me on that whole non-matching thing too. He couldn't tell either.
