Look at me finally posting the rest of my pictures from Austria! You know, that place I went in July? :p Next up: Polaris and Fan Expo! :p





The buildings were absolutely adorable.



Graz is actually the second biggest city in Austria. It has 350 000 people and was a complete ghost town when we arrived on Sunday.



We were staying in a pretty nice hotel. And there was chocolate on the pillow! I seldom stay at chocolate on the pillow type places. :p



The conference excursion was to a winery out in the country.



And things were pretty!



The castle on the grounds used to be the home of the Bishop of Senecca. And the bell rings for like two solid minutes from a single stroke.



Back in the day they recycled old Celtic and Roman stones for construction.



A rather impressive altar piece.



Stained glass windows!



The wine cellar. We were excited because it was actually cool down there. Also, there was wine. :p



We saw someone with cake like things. We decided we wanted cake like hings. The conference organizer bought everyone cake like things. They were yummy. Kinda like a doughnut.



The Schlossberg. We were glad there was a tram. :p



Graz from the top of the hill.



The clocktower.



More of the city from the hill.



Look! I was there! :p



Would you believe I got this just from walking into a table? :p



I took a lot of pictures of buildings. :p



The Graz opera house



Did I mention it's a really pretty city?



We kinda wanted to jump in this fountain. :p



So many awesome buildings.



Dancing figures in a clock.



Spin little figures, spin!



Comic books in German!



More pretty buildings!

I'M SO JEALOUS. :P

Also, I really, really like your outfit in the non-bruise picture. (Although the bruise is also very impressive. :P )

Everything looks so beautiful. I'd be taking just as many pictures.

Awesome pictures! I really enjoyed seeing them and they make me want to get back to Austria someday. :)
