I have just returned from austria. It took two bus rides, numerous shuttles and three flights but here i am. after 24 hours of traveling (we left two am (no sleeping) on wednesday night/thursday morning and returned 7pm on thurdsay. with time change. with out it, we got back 1 am fridaymorning. whatever. it was exsausting and fun. It was an absolutly incredible trip. I'll try to go over it day by day with pictures when i download them. I'm both sad and glad to be back. Sad because what an amazingly beautiful country, the alps, rivers, glaciers. and the trains, gondalas and such. I'll miss how everyone takes care of the environment, how you greet everyone you pass, how you dont need a car to get everywhere. How clean and beautiful everything is. I cant wait to go back, i'm already making plans for that, except i also plan to know a little more german (Sienna, i have a little better idea of what you went through) and to be in a little better shape, It was rough running up and down the alps all day, well more like walking. But i am glad to be back. Back to cold sodas and telivision and english, yes spoken english, english menus, mmm large soda;s with ice. Cereal and milk for breakfast instead of meat sandwiches. My bed that is long enough. I met some incredible people on this trip, who i hope i will continue to befriend and some people i hope that i will never see again and should probably never EVER leave the country again.
So i'm still a bit jet lagged. i have no idea what time it is, and my ankles are still a little swollen. (weird) I have taken thousands of pictures. that i have not yet down loaded. THey'll be up in afew days i think. But for now. Here is my home.
This is my old dock...it is now gone and a new monster of a dock is in its place, no damage no missing planks...no character. Good bye old friend.

...."Cereal and milk for breakfast instead of meat sandwiches.".. i get this line of yours. signe was always having cheese and sandwhich sort of things for breakfast.. i ate it cause i eat everything but it was bit strange for the morning. i love my cereal and milk. love it.
I can't wait to see all of your pictures, and hear more about your trip! What were you doing in Austria?
And your house looks so inviting. I wish we had houses like yours out here. Miss you!
