Day 129 — Planning for St. Anton
09-December-1971 (Thur.)


TRANSCRIPT

Finally, someone was willing to help (with my letter). That was the International Club, and a student there, who helped me tape music off of my records. It should be really good.

Made reservations to ski St. Anton from 1.1 to 8.1. Lucky to get the bed because it is extremely crowded. I really don’t have the money, but I hope that I won’t be sorry. It’s just an obsession to go.

Brought my horn to the little old Vienna horn maker. He’s going to fix it for 300s. Everything is expensive.


REFLECTIONS

Electronic letter. I guess that I wanted to record some music but didn’t have the equipment to do it. A student at the International Club apparently helps me out.

St. Anton. I make reservations at the famous St. Anton’s ski resort in the Austrian Alps. It is for early January during our school break. I don’t know who pointed me to that resort, but the experience was forever burned in my mind. I cannot forget the beauty of the Austrian Alps and St. Anton in particular. Just want to whet your appetite for the pictures to come.

Horn repair. I don’t know what is not right about my French horn, but I need to bring it to a Viennese shop that repairs horns. It was very expensive. 300s was a lot of money. Actually, that was my reward money from a few days ago. Goodbye, reward money.
