stuff I have done the past few days

We went on a bike ride!! A VERY LONG BIKE RIDE haha 

 Its a field!! 

 I was gonna take a picture of myelf, but that would have ended badly!

 Look!  More Field!! ;)

 They put a cross through the town name when your leaving.... I thought it was funny...

 It may not look like much, but this hill KILLED my legs! I was tempted to crash on purpose just so i could lay down :)

 We went to a farm for some wood, i think.

 Then they stopped the car so I could take a picture, haha Es ist sehr schon!!

 When a train comes, you have to wait like 10 minutes!!!!

 They let me borrow Dominiks old jacket because I didnt bring one!!

 We went to a spice store.  A little girl there liked that I was American, so she gave me a gummy bear.  My conclusion: if i tell people im from America i will recieve an abundance of gummy bears ;)

My host mama said this means If you love, you stay young.  I thought it was super cute!!

Love,
Janell

random pics i was tagged in on facebook

No big deal, but im practically a pro folk dancer...


Ummm... yeah im pretty wierd, it was in the salt mines, we took a slide down and boy do i love slides :)



This is liz from new york! Arent we adorable!?


Im pretty sure all my pictures look something like this...


We took this in a church tehe

Nordic walking adventure!!

 So my host dad said after dinner "you wanna go for a walk?"  and i said yes, but then i get handed these stick things... so i asked what they were for and they said "these are nordic walking sticks we use them to work our arms and such when we go on walks."  Do we have these in america? I dont even know... But i am a pro stick walker

 This is my town name!

 My host brother and father!

 This is pretty much as bad as construction gets haha

 They dont have a dryer, so all my clothes including my bra, are just there for the whole world to see...

 Meiner Küche!

 This is the bathroom I use, it has a toilett and shower in the same room, which is unusual here.  But this is also the laundry room!  Its my favorite room in the house haha.  Although the first day i took a shower I forgot to close those curtains and the shower walls are glass, so i freaked out a little!

After the walk, my family made me some amazing Apfel tee!! <3 yummm i hate american tea, but im LOVING this stuff. Its herbal, and with a little lemon its heaven!

Love,
Janell

Rotary Youth Exchange!

These are all the students!! :) I love them all!

Teacher

This is my language camp class and my teacher

castle in Gemunden

 This was a torture chamber... Hence the sad face

Hallstatt was a fairytale

This is the most beautiful place on earth.  I literally felt like I was dreaming, it was incredable.

 

 This is Sara!

 We took this picture, then a chinese guy came and said "private property" over and over again so at least I got the picture haha

 We went to the Salt mines!  It was so cool! They said it would be freezing, and it was not.  So I wore a ton of layers and I was sweating in the mountain haha, although I am from Idaho I suppose

 Yes I know... These outfits are super attractive

 I was taking a picture of the Train, when the hot guy turned around. Perfect Timing ;) 

 No one knows who this man is, but his picture was everywhere, so I was honored to take this picture.

 Most beautiful cemetery I have ever seen!!

It was probably wrong to take a selfie with bones but...

 This is an aflac duck!!! Ive never seen one before, it was pretty exciting!

Dont judge me...
