alles fuhr fort

Alright.. I didnt get to finish the update yesterday..

Eagles Nest:
Sunday we went to Eagles Nest, which despite the amazing views, did not warrant a second trip. It was cool though, because we got to see what remains of Hitlers actual house as well as where Gorring and Grubel's houses were too.. However spending 12 of 48 hours on a bus is a little too much!
Tobogganing:
On Tuesday we went TOBOGGANING!! It is basically a one man roller coaster. There are these little carts on a narrow little track that winds all the way down this HUGE mountain. You have to take a cable car up to the top and then they strap you into the little cart and off you go! There is a joy stick kind of thing that lets you brake or accelerate. It was terrifying, rickity, and probably the most fun thing ever!!!

(everyone minus Rebecca who I'm pretty sure was taking the picture)(Alpha Gams!)(getting ready to go!)

On our final trip down, apparently someone had gotten too scared and had actually gotten off and walked down the rest of the mountain. We had a HUGE traffic jam and had to get out and move to the front cars so that we could get down the mountain!!
Hall in Tirol:
Yesterday my German class took a field trip to a little village near Innsbruck. It was sooo picturesque! Our tour guide Janine took us to lots of historical places there, but most interestingly to the church where they have this huge collection of relics (aka human bones) on display. It was the weirdest church I have ever seen!!

Alright.. y'all have been debriefed.. now on to AMSTERDAM!!!!
