Patrick whisked me away to the ski spot of rich-and-famous: Kitzbuhl, Austria …. which in August is the pretty alpine getaway for the not-at-all rich and the and-you-are? It is quite bucolic and milk-maidy, and the view is very Sound of Music. Our hiking was curtailed a bit by my belly, although I did make it up as far as the mountain top bar. On the way down from the mountain, we walked through town where — obviously in our honor — trachten-wearing locals came marching by.
