Vienna Rotary trip

 This is a store that sells american foooooods.  I could have bought the whole store, but limited myself to, Reeses, Goldfish, and 1 can of Diet Dr. Pepper :)

 This is a coffee to go car.  Its sooo cute :)
 This is the hotel we stayed at. It was gorgeous!
 Once again, I have no clue how to rotate pictures!
 I love all my rotary peeps!



 We went to the opera house, for a play!  I watched Sweeney Todd!! However gruesome it was, I loved it :)
 We then went to a all you can eat chinese resturant!  Since I dont get as much fruits and veggies as i did back home, I LOADED my plate with grapes and honeydew :)
 We took a tour of the parliment building! :)


 There are statues everywhere in Vienna!  Its really beautiful!
 During a tour of the church, these people from a certain religion handed out gummie snacks to advertise for their church.  It said something along the lines of, "Jesus answered: Give them their food to eat."  I thought it was funny that they handed out gummie snacks for advertisment.
We then went to a castle garden.  Schon bron... I dont know how its spelled.  Behind me you can see the beautiful architecture on the hill.

Vienna with friends :)

I rode on the train to Vienna for the weekend. Me, Jackie, and Nolwen all stayed the night with Alyssa, so we could see as much of Vienna as we could. 

 Of course we couldnt have a train ride without pigging out on food! ;)
 We are such tourists... but after this a guy said "Since your not from Vienna, do you want these?"  Turns out the train station there gave out free tickets because it was a grand opening.  So we got free rides for the day!!
I had to get a picture with the Croissant mustache man.


 We went to a flea market, which is where we bought these awesome american sun glasses! :)
While looking around Vienna, we ran into other exchange students!! Es ist ein klein Welt. 




This man said he held the record for hitchhiking.  He then told me he hitch hiked through Idaho one time, the land of the potatoes. Haha.  

 This was in an alley way in Vienna.  Humans have a monkey mind.  So true... even though I am not quite sure how to take that...
Im in LOVE with Vienna!  I want to live there... or at least visit as much as I can!  I got invited to go during Christmas time with my friends!  They said that during Christmas they have lights everywhere and Christmas markets :)  It will be beautiful!!


These are rental bikes.  You put in a few Euros and can rent it for an entire day.  I took a picture because it was all colorful :)
