First Day with Company

So yesterday evening, E, P & I went to the airport and picked up my friend from home. She is going to be here for a week, and it is totally exciting!!  Naturally it was too early to go to bed when she arrived, so we had supper and watched a movie in typical girl’s night fashion.  We also did a lot of talking and planned out today.

Today was a day of, what else … food! It started out with breakfast, and then we went into Hauptplatz, from there we visited the gummy bear shop, the chocolate store, and we were contemplating going to the Hof Backerai, but decided to save that until later in the week. From there we trekked up the Schlossberg, in the rain, and got to see lots of the main part of town.  Then lunch at a little cafĂ© that is near the Glockenspiel. We didn’t get to see it ring, but of course we’ll go back and see what we can do! Then it was a tour of the University and German class. I learned a lot, and she had a lot of fun trying to figure out the class. Naturally you can’t come visit me in Graz without having a Kebap, so that is what we had for supper. Now I am getting ready for my presentation tomorrow, and we are preparing to go to pub quiz tonight! Should be a lot of fun!

More Later,

PS Teddy had a great time today too!

At the Gummy Bear store. Teddy likes to
rot his teeth too!

Climbing up the stairs, it's a must do when
you are here!

The Clock Tower (I got asked by two other
people to take their picture with it and we almost
forgot to take our own!)

Lunch Time!
