Each year the cows in Austria spend their summer on the moutains. From late June to early September they live at the Alpe together with the cows from several other farmers. When they come down at the end of summer it is always a big celebration called Alpabtrieb.
On September 8th all the cows from the Alpen in Mellau came down and we went to see my brother and his family as they live in Mellau.
Alptag in Mellau is fun and the kids had a blast.
All dressed up in dirndl, Lederhosen and hats

Ben and Lilly look great in their hats
We went to the playground in between and Finn liked to jump off this log

Also Hannah looked cute in her dirndl

It is never too early for a beer
The cows wear big bells and are nicely decorated with flowers
