July 20, 2009

Vienna is so much more beautiful than I expected. I had no idea that the architecture here was so impressive. The streets are lined with beautiful apartment buildings and shops. I just wish I had enough money to go to all of these expensive stores I have to walk past everyday.

This weekend we went to Prague, which was also very beautiful, but in a different way. The style was completely different. I feel like Prague was more about taking in the landscape, while Vienna is about the immediate wow on the streets.

Today we went on a quick tour of the bus system and the area around our hotel. Then, we went to an italian restaurant. It was really good pizza, pasta and wine. Everyone had a great time at dinner, and they definitely gave us a good share of wine!

After we split from Dr. Wasser and Dr. Zect, everyone went back to the hotel and we all hung out in Roger, Matt, and Justin's room. We played "telephone pictionary" (I think) and it was so much fun! You start with a sentence and from there everyone passes the paper and alternates drawing the sentence or interpreting the drawing. that's a really bad explanation of the game, but it's fun!
