Day 8: On to Some Sportiness

After getting a chance to finally sleep in, we had our first warm breakfast of eggs and bacon. We then slapped on some sunscreen and put on our helmets for some mountain biking all around Tyrol. Usually, I can't stand cycling, but did I love it today! Nice trails and long downhills (and the fact that I was in Austria) definitely added to my new affinity.

We headed to a restaurant at the top of a hill and had a traditional luncheon of Austrian/German lunch of sausage and potatoes.

Mmm...yay for sour cream and sausages! Finally, a place in Europa with some ketchup!

Liz Olden and I explored the city upon our arrival. I got some caramel ice cream for only 2 Euros. Apparently, they make the ice cream for you on the spot like a push pop! It was delicious.

The night ended with a Contiki "Pimps and Hos" party! Met some nice Australians and Canadians. Man, oh man. Good times! We'll just leave it at that.
