Today, Austria celebrates a national holiday - its declaration of permanent neutrality, declared in 1955. Earlier in the year, Austria signed a treaty that ended the Allied occupation, and one day after Allied forces left Austria, they celebrated with this holiday.
It seems like most people have gone home to be with their families this holiday weekend, so that means we have some glorious peace and splendid quiet to look forward to! Some homemade Wiener Schnitzel is in the works for dinner tonight!
In other news, the weather report just updated that we are to expect three to six inches! I accepted the 1 to 2 inches that was previously reported, but 3 to 6 seems a bit excessive for a first snow.
Oh well, when in the Alps...
