The hills are alive....with the sound of my sneezes

So Salzburg is gorgeous, but I saw most of it through my hostel room window. I have felt so crappy this weekend! I can't stop sneezing and coughing, it must be all the Edelweiss in the air. This town is actually a little too touristy for me. Its very pretty but its also much more expensive. I think I like the smaller European towns better. I've been so homesick lately, and it is crazy to me to hear how other people in my hostel have been away for a couple months already. All I can think of anymore is all the things I want to do once I am home. I have definetly loved this trip, but since I was in Europe two weeks before the program even began, my tolerance of pay restrooms is running thin. It will be interesting when I get home to really be able to sit and think about all of the things I've learned in Europe and which things I want to incorporate into my life. Tomorrow we have a talk over the German health care system that I am VERY interested to hear. I think the programming for these last two weeks will be very good, even if I have to write my paper by July 31st.

Oh yeah! Melissa, Kristin, Stuart, and I all went on "the most unique sound of music tour" friday. it was pretty fun even if i hadn't seen the movie in FOREVER! It did remind me about how my dad says, you can't me the most unique or more unique or whatever, you're unique or you're not. I don't quite know the level of uniqueness of the tour, but it was fun to sing along in the back of the bus with everyone. Its been a good time.
