The city, with a nice view of the fortress and the mountain behind it.
Beautiful weather is one of the side effects of Föhn that I can definitely live with. It was nearly 70 degrees this past Saturday, which made it a perfect day for a hike! I stood out like a sore thumb in my athletic attire - Austrians seem to think that hiking up a mountain (albeit a small one) does not count as exercise enough to put on any special workout clothing. I am learning not to care, though. If I'm going to get sweaty, I'd prefer to be wearing comfortable clothing!
After the hike and a refreshing shower, I met up with my fellow Fulbrighters for a picnic on the river accompanied by quite a few good laughs. Too bad Föhn and its side effects are on the way out! I wouldn't mind getting used to this!
