Wanna get high?

Here are a few pics taken from the top of the Zugspitze. This is the highest mountain in Germany, and we were standing at about 2900m. The air was quite thin up here, and just a little bit of exertion made me want to fall down.
You can see from the pictures that it was a very overcast day in Garmisch (the town below), but once we took the Seilbahn up the mountain we broke through the clouds to a magnificent -12C Christmas day.


View from the top.

Another view from the top. Apparently you can see a number of countries from up here on a clear day. From here you could basically spit on Austria...but they are nice people, so we didn't.

How you doin'?

Es ist schön, oder?

Don't let those Austrians get too out of line though...

Nice of you not to spit on the Austrians.
I am sure I would not have been able to help myself (just from being a plain bad person; not through any issues with Austria).
