As we arrived in Graz yesterday for the IFAJ Congress and headed from the airport to the hotel, the first landscape that greeted us was corn. Even though they are farther north latitude-wise than even Minnesota, their corn is pretty close to harvest at this point.

Once we checked in, we found a Kornland yogurt bar awaiting us on the pillows of our hotel room bed.

This Austrian company makes lots of grain-based products like cereals and granola bars. These bars are made with corn flakes and oats and topped with a yogurt cream. Not bad when you are starving after a 22 hour trip!

Still no luggage, by the way, so I am getting ready to go out and by some clothes to wear this afternoon. Figure that the luggage will not arrive until we spend money on new clothes so we better get that done!
