This week begins our final week in Graz before our stay in Vienna.  Last week we went on a hike...

...and toured the castle Regiersburg, which is on top of a big hill,...

...and we followed that with a visit to the Zotter chocolate factory and the "edible zoo" on the grounds.

We also spent one afternoon in the park, where this building was with a stereotypically long German word, which means (I think) "general place for experiments with forms of art".

We wrapped up the week with a picnic on Independence Day!
