Day One, Continued.

Friday, Jul 16, 2010

I found the supermarket and got myself essentials such as pasta and sauce, bread, jam, vegetables, milk, eggs, yogurt, fruit, etc.

We then had a “meet-and-greet” at which we met the director of Salzburg College and the director of the dormitory, both of whom were very nice. We were welcomed with traditional Austrian summer snack fare of fruit "gespritzers" (selzer water mixed with fruit juices such as apple or orange juice) and two different homemade Austrian spreads. One is a potato spread that originated in upper Austria called Erdäpfelkäs and the other is a cheese spread with paprika called “Liptauer.” These were served with classic Austrian bread rolls called “semmel.”

All was quite tasty!! Following our snack and brief orientation, we all went back to our rooms and unpacked, got settled, took showers, and went to bed!
