Crystal clear water floods the surrounding area, transforming pastoral Green Lake park as the water overtakes benches and bridges – even as many of the alpine flowers are still blooming.

And folks come here to scuba dive during that time.

Wanna go?  I'd definitely consider a trip to beautiful Austria (and Switzerland).

Out for now.......
