Mary Jo got a tip that there was another Christmas market in the big park down by the train station, so the other night (Tuesday), we went down there. It was a lot of the same stuff as the Christmas market in the main square, but it also had a small “commercial building” like you […]
Today was a very… domestic, day for me. I did the laundry, took out the trash, and vacuumed. That wasn’t the worst part though. Today I actually darned a sock: After that, I really did darn a sock. It’s not pretty, but it’ll get the job done. I’ve always wanted to do that (for some […]
This is kind of an appendix post for Mary Jo’s Class and Museums. Going from the Lentos to the castle, we found a chicken-woman statue. Also, something I’ve noticed a lot of around here: there are a ton of grounding wires. Most homes in the states have them, I think, but here they are everywhere, […]
This is kind of a mish-mash post, so we’ll just dive right in with a picture of the ARS Electronica center the other night: Kinda creepy. it was all foggy, so it had this weird glow it doesn’t have on clear nights. Next, we have an observation of Austrian culture. You know how in the […]
The cheese of the day is probably called Schnittkäse. It is probably also referred to as Innperle Tomate/Basilikum. It’s another cheese you find the the “specialty” section of the grocery store. As you might have been able to guess from the title, it has tomato and basil mixed in. The cheese itself is a fairly […]
The other day, in a hunt for shoe laces, we went to a different grocery store called Merkur. It’s kind of like a smaller version of Interspar, but much closer. During our looking abouts and food shoppings, we found some neat looking bread, so we bought it. I was instantly enamored with the bread ring, […]
So, in case you missed it, we’ve done a few updates in the past day or so! From oldest to newest: Update New Zipline Ad! Goodbye! Shipping Costs I recommend the New Zipline Ad! post. We’re been doing a lot of videos lately, but this last one was our biggest I guess, so we decided […]
We’ve had a few things mailed from the States here, and we now have a good idea of shipping costs. Using USPS, most items seem to ship for about $50. This is either using the flat rate boxes where weight isn’t an issue, or shipping relatively light things in larger boxes. Light things in small […]
Something very weird we’ve started to notice: everyone says goodbye to you when they leave a room. This has happened in the kitchen multiple times. We don’t think much of it when we know the person, but then total strangers to it too! That’s not the weirdest part though. This also happens in places where […]
