So I have not written a blog in a very long time. I am not very good at keeping up with this when the schedule gets very busy. I arrived in Vienna on Saturday November 26th around Noon and Sister Karin was there to pick me up.
After getting settled in, Sister Karin and I went to the 1st District in Vienna. The 1st District would be like Baltimore's Inner Harbor. Its where the most important things are located. We went to St. Stephan's Cathedral and walked down the shopping street to the Hapsburg Palace. We saw the Vienna Library and we went to a Christmas Market which was wonderful! I am sure I will never understand why we don't have Christmas markets in the United States. If I could take one back with me I would. Sister Karin was very helpful in showing me how to get around Vienna
On Sunday I was able to find an English speaking church, Grace Church Vienna. It had been three weeks since I'd been to a church service in English, so I was very excited to go. The people were very warm and welcoming.
I will continue to update you on the events of this past week in school and my activities during the weekend.
