On Saturday, we started the day with Sigmund Freud’s house. Here, we listened to a lecture by Dr. Wasser on Freud. It was amazing to be able to do this lecture in Freud’s house. It made the experience all the more memorable! After that, we went on a tour of the house. It was very interesting to be able to see where he worked after having learned more about his history and accomplishments. After Freud’s house, we visited the Museum of Natural History of Vienna.
Despite the fact that we had an impromptu tour guide, this was my favorite experience of the day. I love visiting natural history and natural science museums so this tour catered right to my interests. We mainly focused on the animal exhibits where we learned some very interesting facts. For example, sloths are the only mammals with nine cervical vertebrae, allowing them to turn their heads 270 degrees! After the museum, we made our way back to the hotel, where we grabbed our bags and headed to the airport.I really enjoyed visiting Vienna, especially doing it as a group. I think that if we had planned our own trip, we would not have had as much fun or learned as much. I am so grateful that Kristin and Dr. Wasser planned this for us! I had such a great time and I look forward to group trips like this one in the future!
Since we're now back to the real world, I'm off to study!
Tschuss!
