Work hard, play hard

Update: I know its Thursday morning, so I’m nearly a week late with updating. I will try to have separate posts in order to update everything accurately.
Friday I went to dinner with the team from CHBL to for a going away party for a lot people. Marcelo (Brazil) was the HoM project manager and will be taking a position with Herzog and DeMueron on a project of their in Brazil, so he’s happy and Stephanie (Canada) was the other HoM intern besides Tyler, who has the model building market covered. So I’m took up her responsibilities and this is the four (yeah? Wow) day I’ve been there. But I stray from the point: picture this. Everyone on HoM team, sitting in a heuriger in the Prater, drinking beers and spritzers, eating those huge meat dishes (Stimmerl?? I think), and just laughing and talking together. Picture it, even though I’m including a picture right below this.

Keigo demolishing the last of the meat on the bone from the giant meat stack dish.

Prost!

The rest of the team watching the riders willing to go to one of the last rides open that night.
Side note: The Prater is an area of Vienna that just houses a carnival type of scene all year long. It’s just like a city theme park. Hahaha, it was really fun. Included rides like this:

Marcelo rocked this mother like three times or something ridiculous.
Anywho, after that night, we didn’t get to the metro before it closed, resulting in taking a taxi home. It was okay – although the following morning I felt so awful! I think it had something to do with the drinking and chain smoking… Hahaha
I’ll start with Saturday and Sunday in a different post, I have to get into work now! I’m just finishing my coffee and cheerios, kreeping on Catherine’s blog and listening to Lauryn Hill. what what.
LOVE family! and Friends!

Hi, the place ths food quest took place is called I think SCHWEIZERHAUS and is very famous. You can eat STELZE there which is part of the upper foot of the pig. It’s very delicious but fatty
), which is very good as a layer for all the beer and spritzer accompanying the food
