I need to get that gross, depressing thing off my profile page.

I just (as in one week ago) got back from Germany! The trip was awesome, the food was awesome, the people were awesome, and everything was a heck of a lot more expensive. And speaking of food, it's almost surprising how many variations of the bratwurst these street vendors can come up with. >.>

Started the trip in Austria, actually, in Vienna. Lots and lots of Mozart stuff (they say that contrary to popular belief, Mozart /was/ very well-known in his time, and the reason he died penniless was because he was a frivolous spender), lots and lots of historical stuff, lots and lots of cool buildings. But guess what there wasn't enough of? Music stores. It's freaking Vienna, and I couldn't find a trumpet /anywhere/. =/

It was a cool city, though. The baroque buildings and churches looked really cool.

Stopped in Salzburg, the place where they filmed a lot of The Sound of Music. Beautiful city; a pity we didn't spend much time there.

Then we stopped at various places all over Germany. Munich was another beautiful place. Lots of meaningful memorials, amazing architecture, and other fun places to see. Got me a beer mug almost as large as my head, just because. XD

So, yeah. Remember the girl from last journal? When I got back, I found out that her going-away party was the next day. So I went -- I'd gotten her a couple things in Germany -- and she seemed a-okay. As if nothing had happened. Even got a hug, so I think it's safe to say that she forgave me. n_n Had a blast at her party.

In other news, I changed my deviantART avvy for the first time in over three years. =O And when I was in Germany, I found German Pokemon cards. I couldn't resist! XD (I <3 my Psiana.) So for fits and giggles, I invited a bunch of friends over with our old Pokemon cards and now I'm hooked again. Damn you, Pokemon and your addictiveness!

That's it for my random thoughts of the evening.
