"The Hills Are Alive....With The Sound Of Music!"

Ok, well maybe not literally, but they were definitely music to my ears! Salzburg, Austria is soooo incredibly beautiful it is hard to me to describe it. I will say this, it is historic, eventful, lively, and HOT! Literally. A whooping 26 degrees, also known as 85 degrees (I think...) I was burnt out on such weather, even though Kentucky weather is much similar. Being in London for so long has most likely turned off my ability to live in such heat, so it should be interesting when I finally do arrive stateside in Kentucky, t-minus a little over 4 weeks and counting. Anyways, we did tonssss of stuff in Salzburg, we saw ALL the sights and took in ALL of the scenery. I even gained the courage to face my fear of heights and take a cable car to the top of a mountain that overlooked the Salzburg city centre! Crazy I know! Haha! But other than that, Salzburg, and Austria in general was more than I expected, but in every way a great one! I had an absolute blast and would do it again if I could, but next time, cooler clothes! In about 36 hours I will be heading to Edinburgh once more, I swear I have fallen in love with that city, it is truly amazing and I adore every piece of it. Although only for two days, it will be lovely to be back in the city that took my breath away from the very beginning...After that though, I have to knuckle down, save the rest of my money (which isn't a lot) and study for my two finals that take place on June 3rd and 4th, and then after that, one day of waiting and then I will be headed to Florence to meet my parents and travel another 2 or so weeks with them! It will be total and complete bliss! Plus, they will get to pay, so I won't have to worry about money anymore, thank goodness, haha. 13 days. 13 days until I get to see my Father and my Mother after being away for FOUR months! It's still hard for me to believe how fast the time has flown, but also how much I've grown and matured and learned from this place and these people. I'm not good at goodbyes...so maybe I should stop now while I'm ahead....
