]]> Today the group took an all-day trip to Riegersburg to visit a castle.

The bus left around 2 p.m., and it was literally an all-day trip since we did not return until late in the evening.

Our only stop on the way there was a chocolate factory. The factory manufactures hundreds of different flavors including a chicken-favored chocolate. Ick.

After a tour of the castle, we made a stop at a local winery and sampled some local wine.

When we finally got back to Graz, I went with a few students from the group to a local cafe where we sat outside the cafe and drank. The cafe is apparently a popular hangout for local journalists and the inside of the cafe is decked out with typewriters and newspapers on the wall.
