Austria.Salzburg. A very beautiful city, and very good beer, but without much of the downhome-iness of italy, and so the things are expensive...internet goes for around 2 euro for ten minutes!!!! but this is in the center of the city, where they really whack the tourists...with whiffle bats. they have leiderhosen on display, but noone wears it unless you pay them. and things are on time! amazingly enough, but the food isn't as incredible as italy, but that's like saying ohio isn't as beautiful as montana...regardless. all is well, save for a knuckle busting of my hands from a sledding inci [View Full Entry]

Ok...first entry in this thing...not going to say much but i wanted to post a few pictures. This place is unbelievable.

Y'know that song that goes 'Heyyyy [View Full Entry]

I went to Milan, Milano for the italians, with my friend Luca and one of his friends, Giancarlo. After a crazy drive into Milan, we spent the day seeing the sites...umm..we saw the duomo, and we walked by the church that holds the last supper. Oh, and we went to a very chic and cool shopping district that only a handful of tourist know about, compared with the kabillion people in the piazza of the duomo. For those who don't know, the word piazza means square, as in town-square, to us Americans in the live-studio audience. We then returned to Torino. [View Full Entry]
