This week it was back to normal classes and the good thing was that we had all the teachers back again and therefore no free classes. Also this week, Jazz and I started a class with one of the teachers to learn some things about working in an office, and that will continue for the next three weeks. And again, this weekend I did some things with the family.
On Saturday just after lunch, Lukas, Klaus and I went for a mountain hike of sorts. Where we went was in Austria, about half an hour from Oberaudorf. The walk took us up through a valley between two huge mountains called the Wilder Kaiser and the Zahmer Kaiser. We walked for about an hour and ended up at a little church that had its 300th birthday last year, so that was pretty cool. Whilst walking we had some pretty amazing views of the valley and of the two mountains. This valley is not accessible to the public by car because to get there you either go through a tunnel which is strictly for the use of rescue services and the residents that live up there. The only other way in is to climb up 316 steps (I counted them myself), straight up an almost vertical ridge. So it was relatively quiet in the valley and on the walk.
And today Lukas, Klaus, Lukas's friend Marco and I went to Salzburg. Salzburg was amazing, as with a lot of the cities I've been to since getting here in Germany. We went staright to the old city where all the sight seeing places are and started to have a look around. We went to the Salzburg Dom, a huge cathedral there, Mozart's birth place and then to the Hohensalzburg, Salzburg's biggest castle. This was seriously cool, from there we got some of the best views od the city and got to see what a real castle looked like. But getting to see the views of Salzburg was definitely the highlight of the day.  |
