Hmmm, let's see here.

So yesterday was fun. We went to the graveyard where all these famous musicians like Bach and Strauss and Beethoven were buried. Then we went and got warm food because it was so super cold! After we warmed up a bit we headed over to the Albertina for some art viewing. It was beautiful! I loved the sculptures of monkeys. Hahaha they were so cute! Anyway, there were also paintings by Monet and Picasso, too. A couple of us went to Forever 21 after that and then back to the hostel! We got ready and left for the Staatsoper to see Boris Gudunov. The opera house is gorgeous with elaborate sculptures and chandeliers everywhere! I loved being in there. On the back of the seat there were little screens attached so the translations of the songs were right in front of you! It was so cool! Eric Spring just sat forward and read over my shoulder… or head… all night. We were on the balcony and had to sit forward to see past heads and railing. The opera was slow to begin with, but then it got better when his family was introduced and Boris started going crazy. By the end of the show my stomach was growling… Luckily only Hannah, who was sitting right next to me, heard. So we stopped at the 24hour Doner stand and got food. After this some of the group went out and others of us went in to our rooms and get ready for bed. Today is our last day and we have a free day until tonight's concert… The Las Vegas Rhapsody!!! I'm stoked for this one. It should prove to be interesting and funny. I hope.
