I never knew Tyrol, Austria could be THIS amazing!!!....


January 30th, 2007
Monday.. It was off to Tyrol, but first a lenthy drive but sooo worth it. We got to the river, yaaaa river inn, to go RiVER RAFTING.. I almost peed my pants I was soo excited. All of us suited up in a wet suite, booties, jacket, life vest, and a helmet to protect ourselves from the freezing cold! Caitlin Coyle, Erika Starr, Brittany Burton, Briana Colorado, Ashley Lorson, Kevin Madsen and me were in a boat together.. trying to take on these rapids. Our coach was named Mike and he basically knew his shit.

It was the most cold water I have ever stepped my feet into colder water than this.. We all jumped in the water as our adrenaline pumped like mad. Paddling lik crazy, jumping in.. or better yet getting thrown in, falling out and having soooo much fun! This was definitely my favorite expereince on the Contiki Tour!!! Contiki set us up with the hottest guides that knew what they were doing. The scenery was sooo cool, we saw the Paramount Mountains! Everyone was laughing, having the time of their lives!!

Afterwards they gave us a shot of schnapps.. the classic liquor in Austria.. and ate amazing gazpacho! I couldn't have had a better a time!!

We stayed at one of Contiki's places to stay... It was soo nice and big, with their own bar and internet service. They were very friendly and welcoming to each and every one of us! We went to a local bar that night called Silver Bullet which ended our day perfectly...
