Day 60 - Salzburg beerfest

So today feeling a LOT better than previously (but still not 100%) I ventured out into Salzburg to see some things. I followed a route on a map that was given to us, and pretty quickly arrived in the middle of the town square and Salzburg’s very own beer festival.

It was pretty cool, there were people EVERYWHERE rides and food and carnies (smell like cabbage) it was very fun. I wandered around for AGES, just looking at the shops and rides. I ate heaps of food! The best thing was this little puff pastry thing, filled with a soft meringue mixture (almost like royal icing before it sets) it was soooo sweet I couldn’t even eat it all, but delicious.

After wandering around and eating for ages. I finally headed back to the hostel. I hung out for a while, as it was about a 4-5 hour wander I went on, and still being a little ill, it really took it out of me.

The Americans I went to dinner with the night before asked me to go out to dinner, but the girl with them just got bad news, and decided she wanted to get drunk. Because I had to catch a bus the next day, I politely declined…

I ended up having an awful meal at the restaurant in the hostel, it was schnitzel and potatoes, but everything had this funky taste about it… So I barely ate any, just drank a LOT of coke. I have to say, I BARELY drink Coke, or any soft drink at home, but I’ve been craving it sooooo badly over here?; I can’t figure out why?

Anyway…

Things that made me happy today; Lots of delicious food. (It always seems to be food right?)

Things that made me sad today; Still not being completely over being sick…
