Leoben and Wien

It has been a little bit since I have posted because I haven't had internet. Here is what I wrote on the train:

9/9/10

16:35

I’m sitting on the train on my way to Vienna. I woke up early and repacked all of my suitcases because Susi and I were going to Leoben, where she goes to school that day. We arrived in Leoben and she showed me around, did a little shopping, and then got lunch with her boyfriend, Christoph, and his sister, Christina. I got a Groesser Radler to drink, which is combination beer and soda (like sprite). It was very tasty, so I’m writing the name down here so I can remember to order it again. Susi told me about a great beer fest in October so I hope I can come and wont be too busy with school. I’m excited to get to know my host mom but nervous about speaking to her. I can’t wait for school to start so I can improve my German. I feel more comfortable learning German in a classroom than in daily life. Go figure, I’m a scardy-cat.
