Salzburg, Austria

Salzburg, Austria with CD has hands down been the wildest stop to date. Of course we did all of the touristy things – saw Mozart’s house, ate a sausage, hung out in the old town, and pranced around a field like we were little Von Trapp girls – but it was the antics that made this stop memorable.

Shortly after getting to Salzburg, CD decided to take my ISIC card, a form of international student ID, and chuck it on top of a bus stop. Getting it down wasn’t easy. First we just threw rope at it. That didn’t work, so we tried the same thing only with CD standing on my shoulders. That didn’t work, but it did catch the attention of a passing group of American tourists, some of who stopped and took pictures of us. Eventually AL go involved and she climbed part of the way up, where she hit the card with a plank and it eventually came back down.

After that in CD’s room, I was having a shower, and CD decided it would be an opportune moment to open the curtain and formally introduce me to his new Salzburg friends. I shook their hands. This was all within the first hours of arrival, and kept up all throughout the Salzburg stop.

Thanks To: CD you were an incredible host – you made Salzburg unreal. The trouble you and I and some of your Salzburg friends caused was hysterical.
Coming Soon: An entry that might actually catch the attention of the intellects in the crowd
Next Sop: Budapest, Hungary
