Freedom! Independence! The last final is over, so all is right with the world. With these last few free days in Vienna, I’m going to be conducting a Christmas shopping spectacular, so if there’s anything in particular that you want from Austria, get your orders in now. I’m hoping I can hold out on the not-having-to-wear-a-coat-this-entire-semester as the finish line is in sight and the weather forecast is predicting above freezing highs for the rest of the week. I feel it will be a different story as I return home to Pocatello and its below zero temperatures, but not to fear, North Carolina is also in the near future.
