1/15/2010 7am: I woke up and told myself it was time to go for a ride. The snowstorm here in Vienna had delayed training. My list of near casualties:
Weather stayed between -6 and -3 degrees Celsius.
Accidentally riding on the freeway, not fun.
Chain coming off and falling in front of a few cars, probably dangerous.
A little blood never hurt so was able to finish another 50k.
Snowing and a 12 kilometer climb to the top of Grinsing on a slippery cobblestone road.
View from the top overlooking the city made everything worth it!!
Bombing the hill afterward new pr mph(road towards bottom was dry/no cobblestone)
1/14/2010 Atop the hills of Vienna and between the small village of Grinsing stands a lonely church, and a spectacular view of the city (when its not covered in a cloud). Will return to capture the cityscape!

1/11/2010 School began Monday, here are a few shots that I see on my daily walk to school. You take the U-bahn from Landesstraβe to Friedensbrücke then take the 5 or 33 car on the straβenbahn. Travel 2 stops then my school is just around the corner.

If being a tourist is uncool then I am a huge loser. We traveled around the city of Vienna all day exploring the incredible architecture and museums! Apparently the only cool things that I saw (hence the Photo) were a fire hydrant and a bike and if that's not convincing enough that Vienna is beautiful, then you have yourself a problem. So much to see, so little time, I wonder where I will end up next.

Arriving in Vienna a day early I was able to go out and do a little exploring on my own. I didn't know where I was heading or what I was looking for so I just decided to get on the 1st street car I saw. I was able to see so much as I wandered aimlessly around for about 3 hours in the snow until I decided to turn back. Its an enormous yet beautiful city with so much to see!

Exhaustion after 20 hours of travel across the world. Portland, Oregon to Calgary, Canada to Frankfurt, Germany to Vienna, Austria. It feel great to finally begin to settle back in.
Through traveling,seeing, experiencing, artwork, thinking, and reading I am in a never ending search for everything this expansive world has to offer. "Just as treasures are uncovered from the earth, so virtue appears from good deeds, and wisdom appears from a pure and peaceful mind. To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue."
