Berlin

Just a quick reminder: we’re in Berlin for the next week. We got up at 5 yesterday and took 3 trains up to Berlin, arriving about 4PM. We grabbed some food stuffs and then used the apartment kitchen to cook. Yeah, instead of hotel rooms, we rented an apartment for 5 days. Super cheap! Today […]


All The Videos

We’re back in Linz now and finally have all the videos uploaded. You can either go back and re-read each post with the videos now added, or just check them out right here. Before we get to that though, I wanted to show you something really freaky: Milka is a chocolate company over here. They […]


Saalbach Day 3

And that’s day 3. Wait… I say that at the end. OK, starting over. … Time for the day 3 update! This was our “big day”. By that I mean, skiing day. That’s right, we finally went skiing. We started off the day with our huge breakfast, as normal, then went down to a little […]


Saalbach Day 2

Day 2 update time! Today was a learning day. We’ve discovered two very important things about Saalbach. First, it’s hard to find information about not skiing things. Like sledding, tubing, or snowshoeing… all of which they claim to have. Second, and this ties directly into the first item, if it isn’t skiing, it’s a second […]


Saalbach Day 1

Well, we’re in the mountains. We grabbed a train from Linz this morning and started the big travel. We arrived in Salzburg a little over an hour later. We waited there until the train for Zell am See arrived. Yeah, that’s a city name. Once we arrived there, we waited half an hour for a […]


Austrian Travel

Do you remember this picture? It would be impressive if you did, since that’s a new picture. *snicker* No, there was a very similar one on here a while back. The reason this is being re-posted is because for MJ’s birthday, I got lederhosen. Yeah. Joni has wanted me to get some for a while, […]


Escalation

Well, this just keeps getting worse. Fantastic!


Super Bowl

We saw the first half and the half time show.  Which I think is pretty good considering it started at midnight here.  We went to Chelsea Pub where all the Americans met to watch the game together.  They let us bring our own snacks, too.  I think most people there were cheering for the Packers, […]


Ouchies

Well, that explains the rustling we’ve been hearing in the night. Warning: mildly graphic ending… maybe watch before showing to young kids. OK, OK, here’s a version that’s got a slightly less “visual” ending. e.g. Same thing, no slatters.


Acet-what?

This is something I’d normally share on my blog, but I think this is good enough for everyone to hear. Earlier this evening we were talking about ibuprofen and aspirin. I pulled a neck muscle and was hurting a bit. Mary Jo started dropping the technical names like the show off that we all know […]
