Beautiful Sunny Day!

Got up today around noon. Very refreshing!

Made some oatmeal with brown sugar and fresh strawberries. See parents, I am eating well.

For the first time in a couple of days, the sun was streaming through our apartment windows--without a cloud in the sky. It actually hit about 80 degrees Farenheit, which is hot for Salzburg. Hollis, Ben, Kristin, and I decided to wander around a little bit.

First stop was some ice cream. Mmmmm. Vanilla. Walked through the gorgeous Mirabell gardens again. Sat by the Salzach for a little bit, soaking in the sun (I did get a little sunburnt...I need my SPF 45). We then crossed to the other side of the river to the Mulln Church used in "The Sound of Music". We followed the streets down, walked through a tunnel, and back through Getreidegasse, where the cast-iron street signs hang above each little store. Coming back, we all decided that pretzels sounded like a good idea. And they were. Delicious.

The picture below shows St. Peter's Abbey, the church that we saw a couple of days ago.
