... wind and one the inside. Ric was also a bit late but not anything like Jan. <br><br>Ric's apartment is amazing!!!! He has all the lastest in technology and amenities. He has a projector screen where he watches football games and movies with his friends. He has a Wii and just got a new PlayStation. Has great style in the remodel that he has been doing himself on the apartment. The bathroom has a light that covers the entire ceiling, it just makes you feel happy ...

... mijn vriendjes (Minnie was weer terug in Wenen, Patricia en Violeta gaan bijna weg) in Herman's strandbar. Heel grappig, want het stortregende. Het hele strand was verlaten, maar wij hebben van onder een afdakje naar het prachtige onweer gekeken (hele horizon-brede flitsen!!) zitten kijken en rare Egyptenaren en Franzosen van P+V's summer school kennengelernt.<br><br>Donderdag heb ik het Vienna City Bike systeem aan Kate ...

... s Parsifal, and we loved every minute of it. There were a lot of people at standing room at first, but we stayed longer than any of the others. We had our own individual screens in front of us that translated the opera into English so that we could understand it, and by the 2nd intermission when we went to get sandwiches, we were hooked. We stayed the full 5 hours and it was completely worth it. All of the performers were extremely talented ...

... eating so much local (and lots of street) foods. The best comparison I could make is if you were in India and went out for Gol Gappa's, it'd be cheap. I'm sure our costs will rise as we eat in Italy and Spain, but so far it's been easy not being a vegetarian. Finally I hear the biggest fan of the blog is my mom, so I wanted to take the opportunity to say hi and hope that this blog helps her not to miss me too much. Thanks to everyone for reading, bye.

... lounge and caught a couple of hour's sleep. Despite my ruffled, unshaven appearance the next day, I was upgraded to business class! First time ever. Maybe they knew I'd paid $1,700. Time flies when you are having fun. I'd like to fly business class all the time. Istanbul! YES! Wait mister Canadian. Not until you purchase a 45 Euro visa, the most expensive of the lot. Sheesh.

... assume are his fans. It was a peaceful place to rest before returning to our pension. Vienna was a very beautiful city, if not a tad bit pretentious. There was really too much to see in only three days. This has really been the case in most of the cities, but even more so here. The people also seemed less prone to, or adept at, attempting to rip off tourists. Vienna is a great city for anyone who likes music, museums and even the outdoors.

... Jen had always wanted to see the Spanish Riding School perform, so it was disappointing that when we tried to book back in July the performances were already booked, and we had to be content with a "privatissimum." where the head rider showed how the horses were trained. The school is in part of the Hofburg palace, and is a beautiful arena. The horses and their riders are very impressive and we ...

Since these are post journals I'll just write each day out. I haven't been able to write journals the rest of these trips. Oh and I'll skip the days since they're not useful anymore as I'm writing each days highlight. Austria Tyrol, Austria Felt a little better, but I said the same thing the ...

... exit of the taxi he opens the door and says "Mrs. President". I knew I liked Vienna already! I liked it even more when I entered my hotel room to find marble floors, a huge, deep bathtub and a window that didn't look as if it was going to fall off. I took a walk later to dinner with the group, and we found this amazing place with dim lighting and posters all over the wall. The menu was however in German and I was the only one with a phrasebook, I ...
