-22 degrees Celsius

Bwah. Today was super super super cold. So cold that my ski goggles froze on the outside! By law, the little German kiddies are not allowed to ski more than a half day on the third day of the trip, so we were back at the Villa by lunchtime. In the afternoon, the kids all had to go around the town and answer about 20 questions in a scavenger hunt. They all brought the pages back to me out of breath after running around to find all the answers. After dinner, we went on a Nachtwanderung - Night Hike, or rather a bit more like energetic walking. Anyways, we went through the woods, around one of the local castles, up through some fields, and ended up at the ski center where the teachers and local ski club put on a demonstration. It was neat to be able to watch very skilled people do what they do. They had ski ballet, snowboarding, carving, ski biking, and some old-time skiers to boot. Even though it was still mad cold, the walk back was a quite nice end to the night, especially with tonight's full moon.
