I am just sitting in my room actually doing homework bleh. I hate how this school stuff gets in the way off traveling. I just finished some work For Business communication's and am now studying for my midterm. I wish classes didn't exist in Europe. Oh well look at my pictures from Amsterdam they are great. I cant wait until this coming http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Austria/Tyrol/Innsbruck/blog-303182.html Did somebody order a crystal doorknob a set of crystal binoculars and a crystal sleigh pulled by crystal reindeer We hereby christen Austria 'Swarovskia'. Every 3rd shop beams the Swarovski signature swan. The stores in between flog giant pretzels bier wench outfits and humourous tshirts reminding clueless tourists there are no kangaroos in Austria.Innsbruck may have been stunning were it n http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Austria/Tyrol/Innsbruck/blog-299701.html So today me and Laki got out of classes and decided to just walk around Innsbruck for awhile. We hoped on the bus and decided we actually had no idea all the places it stopped so we rode it around for awhile. After about twenty minutes we arrived at the Hofgarten where we were the other night and decided that a walk around in the daylight might do us good so we did. IT was so beautiful. I http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Austria/Tyrol/Innsbruck/blog-298112.html So it was really fun day yesterday. IT was not that eventful but what Laki and I did do was a lot of. It all started with a normal day of two classes and then we decided to go back to the room and do our homework. After we did our homework Laki went to take a nap. I decided that I wanted to get downtown and not sit in my room all day so I just went and got on the bus and went to the Klini http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Austria/Tyrol/Innsbruck/blog-297951.html OK so sorry for the delay I had a little trouble with the internet. The Austrian whether though is something else that has been giving me a little trouble over the past few days. IT is apparently exactly like the weather in Maine during the summer according the Christine. The problem is though that it is cold in the morning hot in the afternoon and cold at night with rain thrown in at rand http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Austria/Tyrol/Innsbruck/blog-297459.html So Yesterday was a blast and an adventure in more ways than one. Once I got up and decided to get out of bed I realized that it was about 630 in the morning jet lag sucks. I went outside saw the beautiful mountains again and decided to go for a walk. An hour later and a few more mountain surveyed I got back to the Panorama and tried to find some people to eat breakfast with. I found Aar http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Austria/Tyrol/Innsbruck/blog-296505.html Dagen i dag er 6.Juli og vi har nettop ankommet Innsbruck steriket... i dag tidlig dro Marius med fly fra Munich hjem fra sin uke p loffen med oss og vi satte kursen mot Italia... Vi har reist en god del og sett litt av vrt men har ikke skrevet noe og har heller ikke tenkt til det... gidder ikke... blir alt for lat av vre p bil ferie... hehe... men men.. vi har tatt noen bilder og video http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Austria/Tyrol/Innsbruck/blog-296089.html Cheri and I have employed an advanced form of mathematics to calculate the best possible usage of our holiday time. We both get 20 days from our jobs and an extra 8 on top of that for public holidays. Combined with judicious usage of long weekends and you can turn 1 day of holiday from work into 10 actual elapsed days. Some creative accounting goes into it.For Easter Cheri and I decided to s http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Austria/Tyrol/Innsbruck/blog-296018.html So Irsquom in Europe now. It still hasnrsquot sunk in to me though it is really a crazy thought to think that I am halfway around the world from where I was a day ago. So letrsquos recap. The excursion here was really not bad at all. On the first leg of the trip there was a slight amount of turbulence that caused my friend Racheal to keep grabbing onto my arm. I though that it was http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Austria/Tyrol/Innsbruck/blog-295871.html In sieben Wochen geht's los nach NeuseelandDarum besuchen wir noch ein paar Freunde in der Heimat zuerst mal den Lucca Harry auf der Hochschoberhtte Schobergruppe nahe Lienz OsttirolDies ist auch ein Test ob das bloggen auch klappt.

So instead of starting from the beginning of Italy I've decided to skip over it and write a couple of more current entries before going back and filling things in. So for now there will a be a significant hole a time hole if you will. But the hostel in Berlin has free internet so maybe it'll get filled in a bit. But I'll be tryin http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Austria/Tyrol/blog-284944.html So sorrz for the long delay... before I start with this I want to preface it with an explanation Im in Austria and the kezboard is screwed up most notablz that the y and z kezs are in opposite places so instead of bothering to fix it Im just going to tzpe the waz i know and figure it out.

Surprisingly I didnrsquot have a hangover Most people made it on time but there were a few stragglers today.We drove a while then made a service stop in Lichtenstein. It was a very artsy place. There was art everywhere you looked. Beautiful pictures on the sidewalk sculptures on every cor http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Austria/Tyrol/Innsbruck/blog-283921.html SeavasThis time we look at Austria. After leaving the tropical sealevels of northern Italy it was nice to have a change of scenery as we moved forwards towards the Germanic regions of central Europe. Possibly the most scenic of the countries we visited Austria is 60 mountains so we were bound to get some decent photos and sights. 16508 Venice to Austrian TyrolWe left early again fro http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Austria/Tyrol/Hopfgarten-im-Brixental/blog-282383.html Morning http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Austria/Tyrol/Innsbruck/blog-280141.html Morning http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Austria/Tyrol/Innsbruck/blog-280136.html Hello one and all moved over to Innsbruck on Tuesday.

Schwedenhaus The Swedish House in Innsbruck is of the nicer kind. Right on the river Inn at the foot of the mountains. Wonderful. I'm stuffed in to a room with one Italian guy and one German dude.The Italian speaks very little English.

Down in the valley the snow had turned to rain but we made the best of it because we anyway needed a place to pause in order to decide where to go snowboarding.

Our residence is right beside this river and we walk along it to get to school.
