Happy Assumption Day!

Today the Austrians are celebrating Assumption Day. Apparently, today is the day that they set aside to commemorate the Virgin Mary's assumption into heaven. What that exactly means, I'm not quite sure. But what that does mean to me, is that everything in Vienna is closed. I had no idea and Josh went out to run errands and returned soon thereafter. So we have have a nice relaxing afternoon and plan to pick right back up tomorrow in getting settled. Maybe I should buy an Austrian calendar.
