Thanks for the nod! I'm glad Chia and Banks had such an awesome tour guide! Maybe they'll have to send you a blog to post from their perspective! Hopefully Chia's photogenious self got some great pics! Just got back from 85 degree Florida to 45 degree VA! Counting down the days till you return and look forward to reading about your adventures from now until then!
xok
my shower is much better! Told ya you should have brought a flashlight! Looks like it was great...once again...kudos for taking advantage of all the opportunities!
It sounds like you had a great time.....to bad you missed the Herring and the Moose for dinner. Sweden is a nice country to visit. Perhaps you should visit in summer as they really have one.
Keep up the blog as we do read it carefully.
A minor correction....the Vasa heeled, not keeled.
Also it good to hear from you.
Hey, Hey,
What a great blog. But it sure looked cold. If I ever went I think spring or summer would be the time. You should be starting a book for other exchange students.....all the ins and outs of how to see countries and especially how to get seats on planes...........Love ya Nanny
My friend Mika from UVM is studying in Athens this semester and we've been talking about arranging a little exchange between Austria and Greece in fact...
Or I can visit Maria and Lela. "If my good leg don't go down, I don't go down."
Nicht schlecht! Ich finde deinen Blog echt super! Es ist interssant wie du uns Österreicher und unsere Traditionen beschreibst. Außerdem wollte ich dir noch ein Kompliment für deine guten Deutschkenntnisse machen: Die sind echt schon sehr gut! Viel Spaß noch in meinem Heimatland =)
Baba und liebe Grüße Bernadette
P.S. Wenn du etwas nicht verstanden hast, I can speak english too ;-)
I can't believe how beautiful and storybook Switzerland is! You are some lucky guy! I am so jealous!!! I'm sure you've sent my swiss chocolate valentine - it's probably in the mail! You look fabulous and so happy! Miss you! xok
I don't need to carry my passport, I have a card that I have with me that replaces my passport, 'cause it lists me as an inhabitant of Austria, so I only need my passport when I'm in another country...it's a pretty sweet deal haha
Federer (my "exception" a la Friends) Thanks for the Federer thing. It kind of looked like him on the money you had a picture of.
Second, I don't think you should be going places without your passport on you. Doesn't seem smart.
do you speak Swedish also??????// There is no stopping you kids is there..........somehow I feel you will have a hard time settling down to our very routine life when you get home............. but am so happy that you are able to see so much of this world. So the adventure continues with you........ Pics came thru so now I can see what a handsome group you all are........ we had ice on the deck this morning..hows that? Love ya, Nanny
I was impressed there for a minute as I tried to decipher what the heck you were talking about! Matthew...bring a flashlight...Sweden only has a few hours of sunlight at this time of year! Sounds fabulous!
L'arco rampante L'arco rampante controbilancia le spinte laterali di altre struttura spingenti (archi, volte), frazionando gradualmente le spinte orizzontali fino ad annullarle. Si favorisce così l'elevazione dell'edificio contenendo l'energia di spinta, e permette in tal modo alla costruzione di innalzarsi in uno slancio verticale altrimenti impossibile da realizzare in un edificio semplice in muratura.
Come on, that's common knowledge, the mechanics of the flying buttress, in italiano. (Nah, copied it from Wikipedia.)
Let me know your plans!!! Guess what? Your Christmas present came back today!!!! I will unpack it and send with Rachel and Banks!!!! Fun games to play......New undies....so buy any!
Don't worry Matthew, with your brains and those pearly whites you will go far. I just love the idea of learning the waltz before leaving high school. Can't wait to hear about your next adventure.
