Watching the DVDs Heinz sent and not understanding most of the words is frustrating, but a few of them are used often, so I begin to recognize them. For instance, "Zillertal" and "Zillertaler". I had to google it...lol
Wikipedia says it's a region of the Alps, drained by the Ziller River--aha! It's a beautiful area for tourists in the summer and skiiers in the winter. Here's the official Zillertal website. Another word Heinz used often is Tyrol, and evidently, the Zillertal area is part of Tyrol, Austria.
Oh...by the way, I was finally able to capture a few still pictures from Heinz' videos--these are from the second one.
Raimond, about to yodel..........................Heinz and Raimond
The incredible view...............................a Binder farm
The chapel and cemetery in Sant Johann.......a village 'Octoberfest', I guess
One of the click-clack windmills..........and a pasture of Lipizanners!
I did understand the names of these two little girls: Daniela and Michela Binder, and that this little girl was "Maliss":
THANK YOU, Heinz! Now, I just need to capture some pictures from the first DVD about Schamers and Neuhaus. (Later...turns out being able to capture these images was a fluke. I can't get ManyCam to do it again....sorry!)
