it was heaps harder than i thought it would be. and after troy realised that snow is actually wet, he refused to help me. the snow wasnt really sticking together very well so karl wasnt very big...
ok so maybe thats an understatement, he was tiny. and i had real trouble giving him a nose cos his head kept rolling off when i tried. eventually maureen came to the rescue and helped me hold his head while i attached a twig. no mouth but it was my first one so i was proud of the little chap:)
it was a very nice day all around. the castle we visited was built by the 'mad' Ludwig the 2nd, who decided that, as well as about a hundred swans decorating every room, a fake cave next to the bedroom was an essential part of any serious castle. after we toured the inside we walked up to this scary narrow bridge and got a good view of the whole castle which was fun, walking along some icy paths through the forest in the snow.
and dimitri slipped over which, once we all made sure he was ok, we all laughed ourselves silly about...just the angle he fell on...you had to be there. but it was a really nice day with the cousins, like being with my siblings, who i'm missing terribly.
