GOT IT
Because of this, it was not until the early months of 1907, that Bruno took his family on a winter vacation to Vienna. First by reaching out to the Kasier Franz Joseph I of Austria, and communicating with the man regularly enough throughout the fall and early days of winter in order to secure a proper invitation.
Finally, the day came for the train to pass through Germany from Berlin into the
southernmost tip of its borders, which was the Allg?u region of Bavaria. Sitting in the warmth and leisure of a train as it passed through the alps through the dead of winter was perhaps the most beautiful thing Bruno had ever witnessed. Even moreso as it went into the Tyolrean alps and finally off towards Vienna.
His children couldn't help but marvel as they looked out the windows at the tall mountains steeped in snow. But despite its immense and wondrous beauty, Bruno was all too aware of the dangers that existed in these mountains, and during his past life, the thousands of corpses that lay frozen there for well beyond a hundred years, and perhaps infinitely so.
After all, the Isonzo Campaign of the Great War was fought in the alpine region of Europe, and many bodies had never been recovered, lying under a sheet of ice and snow buried for all of eternity after artillery strikes caused an avalanche to crash upon both armies.
