The month of april has flown by faster then i thought. On april 11, my parents flew here for my 18th b-day. That, right there, was the best present of all. Just the fact that i got to share my happiness with them on my birthday. We did the usual touristy thing and toured vienna. After that we rented a car, which i thought was a bad idea and then we drove threw austria! We had some adverntures with getting lost, i think even at one point we didn’t know what town we were even in, but it was all part of the fun. We were together for 2 straight weeks and it turned out to be a great experience. We even took a train to hungary. That was pretty excited. We visited Ben’s parents and even saw kelly. For some reason i thought hungary would be somewhat like austria, but it really wasn’t. The cultural is totally different. But overall i must say that we enjoyed our visit and saw eveything we needed to see and ate everything there was to eat within 3 days.Then we returned to austria for more shopping and more food!! I think that was my parents favorite!! “EATING“ i mean—we seemed to do a lot of it. I think that everything turned out for the best and i got to share my current life with my parents and they got to meet all my freinds and family overe here. I think that is important. And i am glad we did it. In 3 days i will be leaving for my europe tour. I will be gone for about 19 days and then i will come back for one last week. And then fly back home to florida. It is sad that this has to end, but i already made a promise to come back and i have no doubt in my mind that i wont. I have met so many people here that i can’t bare to leave behind. So i guess that is about it for this month. ciao-- see you all real soon. take care- jamie |
