Austria

Ahhh... Everything`s in German and I don`t know what I`m doing. And the letters are all in different places and I only have 8 minutes left! Haha..

So things here have been great. Austria is beautiful and this little town is so fun. They had an airshow yesterday with this plane doing some really cool tricks and everyone from the town was out watching along the river. Then they had all the main streets through town closed for antique car races through town. I love random things like that! We saw the marble gardens where they filmed some of the Sound of Music (remember the Do Re Me song scene). Today we toured the ice caves up in the Alps! Our driver took us out of the city to the mountains and we drove up the mountain as far as we could go. Then we hiked for about 20 minutes to the bottom of the tram. That took us up a good ways but then we still had to hike about 20 more minutes up this mountain to the entrance of the cave. The views were amazing!!! Once inside the cave we climbed about 700 more stairs through the whole thing and there was ice everywhere. It was freezing, but really cool! I need to go to bed now because I have gotten no sleep this trip. We have to wake up at about 5am to get to the train station. It is midnight now. I hope everything is going well at home! I will be in Venice tomorrow so I am really excited about that. Talk to you soon.
