DING dooooOOOng DIIIInnnng Doooong

^^On the train again!

So, I made it to Graz last night with Kristen after a long day's travel from Belgium. We arrived around 10:30 p.m and are now very very very tired. Kristen lives in a very cute little apartment with 3 other roommates, yet only one of them is here now. He is studying to become a doctor and has a big test on Wednesday, so I haven't really had the time to talk to him much....
We met Kristen's boyfriend Alex at their usual sausage stand (adorable) for lunch and we were once again attacked by bees. I think it must be the perfume I wear or something, because they love me. Sadly, the feelings are not mutual.

We chatted with Alex for a bit, and then all went and bought groceries at the little supermarket. I was really excited to see that there were two kinds of hand baskets. To save space, they make a small one that looks like a regular hand basket for groceries, but has hidden wheels and can be rolled on the floor and easily lifted up. Crazy Austrians.

After a little walk with Alex, Kristen went to go tutor and I am now spending some time at her house uploading photos and just took a short nap. While sleeping, I was woken up by the sound of church bells…the bells have been going on for about 25 minutes now. Maybe 3 in the afternoon is a really special time for Austrians? I’m not quite sure. I could get like a noon bell show, but 3? I’ll have to ask Kristen when she gets home.

AND the bells just ended while typing this, and at the exact same moment her huge door just slammed shut, and I screamed like a little girl. I think this is a sign that I need to go get some water and finish reading my book/write postcards.
