Arrival and Venice
6. oktober 2023, Italien ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
Arrived at Venice at and breezed through the airport...no line at customs! Met my group then we took a charter bus to our hostel in Mestre.

I locked up my suitcase at the hostel then took a bus over to Venice from the mainland. I enjoyed my first Italian pizza at a hole in the wall/local Cafe in the residential area of Venice.

From Venice, I went back to the hostel and then my group had a welcome dinner, which was delicious pasta and veggies with a Venetian Spritz.Læs mere

Went for a morning tour with a local guide and learned about the history of Venice.

Enjoyed a gondola ride through the canals, which was very relaxing. Had caprese and zucchini flowers (stuffed with ricotta!) for lunch then wandered the streets for a few hours.

The evening consisted of visiting a family owned winery and restaurant that has been in the family for three generations. I got to sample five wines and had amazing pizza, pasta, and cheese.Læs mere

Verona, Innsbruck, and Salzburg
8. oktober 2023, Italien ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C
I said goodbye to the canals of Venice early this morning before taking a bus to Verona, the city of Romeo and Juliette (Giulietta). I briefly visited Juliette's balcony, then browsed a flea market in the historic square. I ended my time in Verona with chocolate Gelato....I will miss it!

I enjoyed watching the dramatic change of scenery from Verona to Innsbruck....I did not miss the canals once I saw the mountains! Stopped in Innsbruck for dinner and toured the original Swarovski.

Arrived at Salzburg around 2130 and went for a stroll around the historic center as I was on the bus most of the day. It was so lovely to see the beautiful city at night (and without a million tourists).

I would not mind if the bus left without me in a few days....I absolutely love Austria!Læs mere

I was so excited to wake up in Austria this morning! I started the day with a walking tour with a local guide. The guide was great and the tour was very interesting! The best part of the tour is that it included a lot of the sites from The Sound of Music.. I will be rewatching this when I get home to relive the memories from today.

The rest of the day was free time...yay! My friends and I had a very steep uphill walk to a fortress. The walk was enjoyable because we were all enjoying Nutella crepes! We were surprised to find several biergartens within the fortress. It was so entertaining to imagine people living in the fortress and firing cannons many years ago.

I took the bus into town and roamed around and did some shopping then relaxed in one of Salzburg's squares. The city has some Italian influence, so there are several squares with cafes and markets. Speaking of markets, I ordered a butter pretzel...amazing!

We wound up at a cozy Austrian pub and enjoyed homemade Austrian pasta and a blonde/wheat beer. We finished our wonderful day by sharing an apple strudel and chocolate cake.

I am already sad to leave beautiful Austria tomorrow morning.Læs mere

Arrived in Munich via private but and had a guided walking tour. Our guide was great and I loved learning about all the history. Munich feels much less like a fairy tale compared to Salzburg.

We had a free afternoon and enjoyed an Augustiner Helles in the city center. Later, I went with my friend to meet her cousin who is also traveling throughout Europe!

My group ended the night at an Irish pub for Karaoke...very fun! According to the locals, if you're in Munich and not drinking Augustiner, you're not really drinking beer!Læs mere

I got to tour Dachau this morning....there are really no words that can describe the 3.5 hours I spent there. Our guide was incredible and I learned a lot that was never taught in school.

My friends and I opted for a relaxing afternoon considering our morning. We took the tram to Nymphenburg Palace and walked the gardens for a few hours, which were absolutely beautiful.

We took the tram back to the city center where I met two friends from home for dinner and beers. I will miss the Augustiner Helles.

Off to Switzlerand tomorrow!Læs mere

Munich to Lucerne
12. oktober 2023, Tyskland ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C
Departed Munich in th early morning and drove a few hours before stopping at Neuschwanstein. I took the shuttle bus up to the first scenic viewpoint then had a wonderful walk back down to the tiny village below.

Our bus made a quick stop in Lichtenstein, which has the same population as the number of students at Penn State...crazy!

We arrived in Lucerne later that night for a quick dinner and shopping. My friends and I opted for grocery store dinners that we ate as a picnic at our hotel later...it is very expensive here. We arrived in the quaint village of Engelburg where we enjoyed our picnic. The hotel reminds us of The Shining and the Stanley Hotel in Colorado...for sure haunted!

We went out dancing after dinner. The village only has one bar that opened specifically for us. A few locals joined us for drinks and dancing.Læs mere

Titlis and Engelberg
13. oktober 2023, Schweiz ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C
The perfect end to a wonderful trip....

I spent the day on top of Titlis mountain in Engelberg. We took a cable car up to 10,000 feet and explored the top of the alps.

I pushed myself out of my comfort zone and did all the excursions. Thanks to my guide Nikos for making me challenge my fear of heights on the bridge!

On our way down the mountain, my friends and I got in a canoe on a gorgeous lake. After coming down the mountain, I indulged in some much needed alone time. I sat in the grass by a lake for a few hours, soaking up my last sunny day in Europe.Læs mere
