    The three of us were on a U train by 8:15 this morning for the 9 o’clock church service. We saw the Vienna Boys Choir at the Imperial Chapel, and enjoyed the lovely service. Afterwards, we ate lunch in a nearby cafe and walked around the markets. Our afternoon was spent wandering the city, going to festive and historic places. Belvedere Palace was the highlight. We walked the grounds at sunset after exploring two art exhibits, and then had food and drink at the market next to the palace. We walked home in the evening and ended our adventures with more drinks at a market close to home. Now, we’re looking for a version of the Christmas Carol to watch. Every year we watch a new interpretation! 🎄Leer más

    We awoke to a gorgeous sunrise in Austria and threw our belongings into luggage before getting a taxi to the airport. Our first flight went well, and we landed in Dublin without any trouble. Since we had some time, we chilled for a bit and bought some goodies to bring back. Dad had his final Irish Guinness at the airport. Precustoms were annoying, but it was better than it would’ve been in Boston. After a short weather delay, we boarded our flight around 5pm Dublin time, and flew across the Atlantic, arriving many hours later in Boston. After grabbing our bags, we met our driver Matt in the airport pickup area. He brought us the 2 1/2 hours back to Guilderland. I dosed off before we passed Springfield, but Matt and Dad talked the whole trip, and we arrived home before 11pm. Milo lost his mind as we opened the door — he was so excited and confused. We stayed up a while, then crashed hard …Leer más

    In Conclusion…

    20 de diciembre de 2023, Estados Unidos ⋅ ☀️ 3 °C

    Well, we’ve settled back home. My parents got the dogs from Ama and Papa yesterday, and Gram and Pop visited this morning. Mom and I did a Target run afterwards, and Dad and I decorated the house in the afternoon. Tomorrow, I go back to school. So, I guess the adventure is over.

    These past few months, I’ve spent a lot of time sharing my thoughts through this blog. I’d like to talk about a few things I learned before this chapter ends for good. Number one has to be to embrace your wanderlust. It sounds cheesy, but indulging curiosity and continuing to explore new places is never a waste of time. The world is huge. Second, if you want your life to be fun and interesting, you have to make it so. Things won’t always be handed to you on a silver platter, and I hope to create future opportunities to make memories like the kind I got to have this fall. Lastly, always be present. Time flies way too fast and though something may seem to last forever, soon it’ll become a fleeting memory. So always focus on here and now, not there and then.

    I hope you have enjoyed reading about our journey. I enjoyed living it. For a final time … good night!    Leer más
