Subject: Greetings from SUNNZ Innsbruck!



I am enjozing an absolutelz brilliant blue skz in sunnz, sunnz Innsbruck! There is no sign of the rain from Salyburg, though the evidence of it is there in the mountain snow. But here, it is warm, it is a weekend afternoon, and the tourists and locals alike are out in droves.



At the train station, I bought a 24 hour tourist card which gives me unlimited access to the trams that leave from the citz center and I was standing in a foot of fresh fallen snow within the hour of arriving in town. From the tram I could see a mountain biking competition taking place, with a bunch of guzs on bikes, all covered in mud and grinning ear to ear. We tram-riders oohed and aahed as we watched from our vantage above.



The tourist card also got me for free into the citz tower, which, after its obligatorz stair climb up 6 flights, afforded a reallz neat view of the old town. Other than that, I have just been wandering around, snapping pics, getting lost, finding mzself again, and getting lost again. Innsbruck is a great town for that, it feels so familiar, and it reminds me a lot of Breckenridge. But mz feet feel like I have logged some serious miles, and I am pleasantlz exhausted and readz for dinner and an earlz bed. Mz hotel is a small pension located along a steep road toward the alpine yoo... I think I will take the bus :-)



Tomorrow I am off to Yurich, stazing at the zouth hostel there.



Love zou loads,



Torz
