Nach Wien!

Hallo so bald! (Hello so soon!)

It has been a wonderful day today - little trouble with my feet, a trip to the market with my fellow German students, a shopping trip into Europark (hee...shopping), and only a little bit of rain.  My life is also near complete now that I am the proud owner of Rapunzel Neu Verföhnt (Tangled)! Thus, happiness ensues. 


In more serious news, I am beginning to take note of how soon my time here is going to be over.  I have but two weeks left, and only two weekends, neither of which will be spent here in Salzburg.  I am already missing the city and the people though I haven't even left yet.  My parents had suggested looking into internships or grad school here...(I hope you were serious about that one). : ) 


But I cannot be sad just yet!!! Next on the list of magical adventures is a trip to Vienna.  Vienna is a beautiful city filled with history of Mozart, Freud, and Schubert, multiple museums to see, operas and concert performances, and swing dancing. At least, there is the possibility for me to go swing dancing...hopefully.  You see, I have felt the withdrawal symptoms of having not danced for some time, these past couple of days.   In fact, it has gotten to the point where I had a wonderful dream last night (one of those real life dreams) in which I was swing dancing.  I wish I could remember the dance moves my mystery dancer and I had done, because in my dream they looked/felt really cool.  (This dream now ranks now at the top of my dream list, next to the one I had in which I was black.)  I am hoping to find some place to go one of the nights, but if not, I will still have a chance elsewhere.  Otherwise, I plan on going to an opera, a symphony performance, and a performance by the Vienna Boy's Choir.  It's going to be a wonderful trip.  We will be there 4 days but I am not bringing my computer so unfortunately, I will not be able to post until Monday or Tuesday.  Hopefully there will be plenty of pictures to show and plenty to tell.


Let the next adventure begin! Nach Wien (To Vienna)!


Just so that you aren't bored, here are some more pictures to entertain.
