Ritter Kuchl & Ötzi

We have had a pretty eventful past two days. The day before yesterday we were invited by our Austrian friend Johanna to join her for dinner at a place called Ritter Kuchl. Ritter Kuchl is in a town about twenty minutes away called Hall. At Ritter Kuchl you revert back to the ways and dress of the Middle Age. They dont have jousting or anything like that, but you do eat with your hands and a knife and are encouraged to belch and fart. It is a very small place maybe thirty people could fit in it at max and you have to make reservations for it because it is like a private party. I think there are about three people that work there and they make a few people dress up in Medieval garb and one person is knighted. When Johanna told our entertainer that Rachel and I were engaged, he made us dress up like jesters. It was really fun. It was soooo much food. You pay €22 for a huge four course meal all you can eat. It was really great. I got to know my Austrian friend Daniel better and we ended up going out to Limrick Bill's Irish Pub later on that night. Daniel had to dress up like a servant. He had to take his shirt off and wear a burlap apron and a viking helmet with bulls horns on it. It was a great time.
Yesterday we took a field trip to Bolsano, South Tirol, in Italy. I dont think that I have seen anything, even in pictures, more beautiful than Südtirol (South Tirol). Check this out and try not to cry because of how beautiful it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVFzw9QJegk
Im serious, it is hard for me to watch that and not get goose bumps and teary eyed. Did you know that Südtirol grows ten percent of Europes apples!? There are also a lot of vinyards there too. It is such a beautiful place. We went there to see something more than the just the beautiful scenery though. We went to see Ötzi, THE ICEMAN, THE GLACIER MUMMY! Google Ötzi, or just ask me when I get back about him, because the information is amazing but I dont feel like typing it right now. The Ötzi museum was probably the sickest, as in made me want to throw up, museums I have ever been to. There was hundreds of mummified bodies there. They were kinda creepy and I tried to create the sounds that it looked like they were making with their mouths. Rachel got mad at me. Anyway you should go there if you want to see a human being that is 5000 years old! That 3000 years before Jesus! Before Stonehenge! Just think about that!!! He wore underwear! I think that is unbelievable. And he was murdered!!! OMGLOLBYOBBFFJK! but seriously, he was murdered. So cool.
We are going to Italy today. Two nights in Venice and then one night in Florence. Should be a blast.
