Torrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! (Gooooooooooooooooallllllll!)

Austria and Switzerland are hosting the Union of European Football Associations' Cup this year. It's not as big as hosting the FIFA World Cup, but Vienna will still be pretty crazy, especially when the finals happen. The final game will be held on June 29--the day before I leave Vienna.

Almost every product in the grocery store has some kind of Austrian national team logo on it. Even the bakeries are catching the fever...sometimes with odd results...


I'm not sure if I should be relieved or disappointed that the soccer ball bread isn't actually an entire sphere. A whole ball would be a little ridiculous, but at the same time, a semi-sphere isn't as fun.
