I just go through periods (days) where I am all about preparing for Europe and others where there is no activity. This is one of those periods where I was all about Europe.
This week alone, I purchased my ticket to see the Bayersische Staatoper perfrom Madama Butterfly at the Nationaltheater in Munich and booked my housing for Salzburg.
A few months ago, I signed up to be placed on the waitlist for opera tickets. I wanted to see Ariodante on January 16 and Madama Butterfly on January 17. As time progressed, I decided to only go see Madama Butterfly. This past week, I received notice that my ticket request was granted, but I had until October 31 to purchase the tickets. I am soooooooo excited! I get to see Madama Butterfly...one of the most famous operas!
I have been trying for months to book my housing in Salzburg. The place I was trying to stay has not opened for 2008 bookings. I could understand the delay in June, July, August and even September. Now that October has passed and it is now November, I cannot anymore. So, I booked elsewhere. I originally was going to stay at a hostel, now I will be at a hotel. Originally, I was going to only have internet in the lobby, but now it will be in the lobby and my room. I, also, get a television to watch the news. I am very happy.....
