This is Linz! It's the 3rd largest town in Austria and is about 2 hours away from Vienna. My team and I spent the day here, visiting the Operation Mobilization team that is based there and learning from them about the Austrian culture. We also got a tour of the city, which is beautiful! Hitler actually grew up outside the town of Linz, and when he came to power this city was one of the first that he renovated.
Team time! We meet together on Tuesday nights for dinner, Bible study and prayer. We had an awesome time of communion together this night as well.
House-mates! The girls have a flat, then Judika (far right) lives in the upstairs of the house and Gordon and Judie Holiday (left of Judika) live in the basement. Judika is an artist from Germany and the Holiday's are from Australia. They're great!
Spending some time at our site leaders house: Robert and Ulla Suhonnen. What an incredible couple! They've done an excellent job of welcoming us into the country, teaching us the ropes (from where to shop to how to separate your trash to the spiritual climate) and being amazing hosts! We enjoyed time in their beautiful backyard eating moose and Norwegian cheese. :) They also have a sauna, which has quickly become a team favorite place to relax!
Street art! On Sunday's there are lots of street artists and performers downtown. Fun fun!
The Weisel! This is a fast train that we take into Vienna. I ride trains many times a day!
A cool castle that you can see outside the window of the OM office. It's so cool to be in a place that's been inhabited for so long and has such a rich history.
Our house! I like it. :)That's all for now!
