Willkommen to Mariazell

On September 3, a group of students woke up early to go on an approx 12 mile hike to Mariazell! With this information I chose not to go of course ;) Instead, Sarah and I rode the one-hour bus ride there to join all those who went walking. We found some students who were strong and ready to go on another hike! and others who were not so happy - blisters, cuts and bruises! :P Mariazell was the cutest town, they had all these little religious shops near the church and we got ice cream while we walked around town and visited them :)


The Mariazell Basilica is also located here which is the most important pilgrimage location in Austria and one of the most visited shrines in Europe. Here are some pictures I copied from Google because we failed to get a good picture while we were there :P
