Vienna, Austria

I stayed with a friend in Vienna that had worked on the farm in Israel with me. His name is Moritz and he is a great guy. 

The house he lives in

/We made a slack line about 20 feet up from one tree to another.
Then we took turns harnessing up and walking across.
Scary but fun.







This is a tradition in Austria. During the Christmas
season kids come and write on the doors the year
with C+M+B in between. The letters stand
for the names of the 3 wise men that gave
gifts to Jesus. 




His house.





His mom's house we stayed in for Easter



The Easter Parade through the village.







Vienna 



This is an old military defense system made by Hitler during
WWII, but by the time it was built the war was over,








A palace that we visited. 

The dog just hanging out.















This was a train station I stopped at in Salzburg, Austria.
It is the home of Mozart and where the real "Sound of Music"
family lived.



Mountains and my hands


So this little dohickey is so awesome. Next to the blue car
there is a garage looking thing. It is a parking garage for
the whole apartment building. You pull the car in and then
get out of the car and it is automatically taken underground
and parked for you. How cool is that?!

























Vienna is a wonderful city. People are nice and of course the food is amazing. I had a great time seeing the land and celebrating Easter. I even went to church on Sunday morning even though it was all in German.


Well...the next and last stop in Europe is Freiburg.
