So we're on the bus to Salzburg. We just spent like 2 hours waiting because the bus broke down. That's the first image you see. We broke down literally just after passing the Austrian/Czech border. Because we were on a bus, they didn't stamp our passports but when we broke down, a bunch of us walked back and had our passports stamped. Then I considered running around in the fields singing "The Sound of Music" but didn't feel like hopping a barbed wire fence. We ended up eating at a little restaurant down the road. That's where I found out that Schnitzel is basically just fried chicken, lol. And now, finally, we are on our way.
Cesky Krumlov was fun. I didn't get the chance to find the historical motorcycle museum (I actually have a feeling now that what used to be the motorcycle museum might be the Egon Schiele museum based on the location of it but whatever) but that's okay. That just means that I'll have to come back and find it. We went up to the castle and walked around the gardens which were beautiful. That is the second image. If I had the money, I'd consider having a wedding there. Then we saw that there was going to be a jousting tournament and decided to watch it image #3. That was fun and the guy that I wanted to win did. Man they were all (the knights) pretty gorgeous! I was jealous of the girl who got to play the princess. Oh well.
After that, a bunch of us rented inner-tubes and floated along the Vltava River. The bottom was very rocky so our feet got a little beaten up. They had a few small rapids and in the first one, I got swept under and lost my sunglasses. In the fourth pic, the first rapid is just beyond the bend. I'm still upset about that to this day, but I still get a good laugh out of this story. Then, after the second one, we were all supposed to get all the way over to the opposite side and I didn't and ended up going past the finish point and had to swim against the current about 75 yards. So now my arms are pretty sore. But I still had fun doing it.
I'm slowly getting more and more ready to go home. I'm getting a little annoyed by the people on the trip. I still like them but I think that because I've seen them EVERY single day for the past month, it's wearing on my nerves. I wouldn't be surprised if everybody else felt the same way. So we'll see how the next few days go. Hopefully we all won't part on bad terms. I don't think we will. I guess that's pretty much it for now. I go on to talk about how camp is starting the day after I get back and how excited I am for it to start. I also neglected to mention that I made a phone call home earlier that morning because it was the annual car show and I wanted to talk to everybody. It was really neat to talk to everyone and tell them how much fun I was having.
