So if being in Europe was not enough, I also got a three week long Spring Break! During this time, Katharina came from Germany to visit! I had an awesome four days with my German sister. She arrived at the train station at 6AM! I met her there, we walked back to my room and then we proceeded to take a nap until an appropriate hour of the day to be awake!
 |
| I missed her :) |
! |
| Seeing the sites |
We had a great time together. It was awesome to reconnect after what has almost been a year now since she lived with my family. We did our fair share of reminiscing about her year in Woodstock and I think it made us both miss our family!
 |
| We visited the University of Vienna and I tried to convince her to attend! |
 |
| Hung out with some of my friends Greg and Jeremy |
 |
| We visited the Albertina, an art museum. |
 |
| This exhibit featured artists from the Munich area including one from of Katharina's village! |
Then saw a different exhibit by an American artist, Mel Ramos, whose is famous for his pin-up girls!
Monterey Jackie >>>

Pretty sure we were not supposed to take pictures but Katharina and I just couldn't help it!

We had amazing weather all four days of Katharina's visit. We had picnics in the park everyday and enjoyed soaking up the sun.

I was so sad when Kat left! But I think we are both excited for when my parents come to visit us in June! They will be in Austria the first half of their trip and in Germany the second half! So excited =)
