Just Married

Last weekend I went to Innsbruck to attend the wedding of my sister, Katrin, and Jeremy. They originally had a civil wedding in the States a few months ago but planned to do a church wedding in Austria. The wedding was quite nice. The ceremony was a bit too religious (doh) for me, but considering it was a church wedding it was actually pretty reasonable. When we left the church, it was a scene like in a movie; it had rained previously but when we opened the door, there was suddenly sunshine!

The wedding was followed by the usual dinner. Katrin's friend planned a few nice activities. They read a passage from the Little Princess in which he talks to the fox about friendship and being tamed and that you're responsible for friends your whole life. Then, they had two set of postcards: one type was used to put on balloons in the hope that those who'll find them will post them. I'm not allowed to talk about the other set about because it wouldn't be a surprise anymore; but suffice to say that it was a good idea.

Katrin and Jeremy went to Italy for a few days before they'll return to the States on Saturday. I'm back in Cambridge already. It's pretty funny that all of us are in different countries now. My brother has been living in Luxembourg for a few years, and I've been around... but we always assumed my sister would stay in Austria...
