Though the Rain Gods decide to play spoilsport, it doesn't thwart the enthusiasm of the folklore who want to keep the traditional dancing custom alive.
Armed with big smiles and donning colourful costumes "Trachtälyt vo Seelisbärg" (literally means the Seelisberg people who wear traditional costumes) of all age groups including 22 children, take to the stage and dazzle the audience with their dance moves playing to the traditional folk music.
Looking around at the packed audience, I'm fascinated by how Tradition - be it Costume, Dance or Music connect young and old. And as always -- there's delicious Cakes to be bought and enjoyed at these festivities, baked by the local women -- when they're not busy dancing around in their fancy Costumes..
Maybe next year, I'll show up in a Saree -- Why not?

The Sun starts to bid Adieu
and out of the Grey and Blue
A red glint appears on the peak nearby,
and suddenly the entire cliff turns to Ruby...

2 birds - collecting moss, twigs and straw
carrying it in beak and claw
toiling hard to build a nest
where their 3 eggs shall rest
tending to them with love and care
are the mama-papa birdie pair
we can't wait to hear the nestlings cheep
thankfully the cats are fast asleep!!!

So what does one do when a connection is missed? Instead of hanging out at the Bahnhof, i decide to check out Innsbruck Altstadt (Old Town).
A few minutes and amidst the hustle and bustle of the city --
I stumble upon a quiet oasis --
a Fountain, a statue of Rudolph IV, some cool gargoyles, a few benches --
Perfect place to sit and enjoy a gelato --
How sweet it is to wait for the next connection back home to Switzerland!!
