So here I am! Not Vienna actually, but in Mariazell for our orientation session. The flight went well, my transfer was a bit rushed but I made it. One of my checked bags didn’t make it to Vienna though. But if that’s the only complication it’s not too bad. I didn’t sleep the entire flight to Berlin, but I probably fell asleep for about an hour 4 times or so. I was pretty awake for the ride to Vienna, which was awesome because I got to see the beautiful change in the landscape. There were plenty of fields and all of the sudden mountains started to appear in the horizon. It was beautiful!
Once we were all gathered we loaded ourselves onto a bus to Mariazell. Apparently the scenery was gorgeous but I couldn’t even keep my eyes open. We did stop at a rest stop where I had my first experience with Euros and plenty of German food that I didn’t recognize. But whatever I ended up eating was quite good! After about a 3 hour ride, of which 30 minutes was up a winding hill, we got to this beautiful little town. I plan to explore tomorrow and take lots of pictures.
We also had dinner in the cafeteria that was also good. I had my first helping of wiener schnitzel as well as some cappuccino mousse. Tonight we have a welcome meeting and then I will finally get to sleep in a bed.
