Frey Wille!


So, I'm not sure if I mentioned in previous posts Liz's new European obsession, but its Frey Wille. It's a jewelry store in Europe (and two locations in the US) that we've never seen before. Truth be told, we have been stalking it all over Europe. We first spotted it in Florence while walking home one night and then the next day had to look for it all over the city again. It's super hippie-chic; there is a different "theme" for each pattern, like Ode to Joy, Paradise Moonlight, etc. and is modeled after a different artist. We found the next store in Prague, where they told LIz the ring she wanted was $11,000! So, at that point, she reconciled the fact that she would never own that ring (but we think it was platinum and had diamonds around the band). Turns out, there was one in Innsbruck too, but every time we went by it, it was closed. Today, was our last exam though and we were feeling extra precarious, so we decided to go check out the store and to eat at Magic Kebab. We went in before we ate lunch and Liz made the decision to buy the ring, BUT then we had to mill around over lunch on whether she should get it big enough to fit her middle finger or not (which she did). It was much cheaper than $11,000 and just as cool as the other ring. Anyways, I'm not sure if I adequately explained how much Liz wanted this ring, but she got it and it was a great end to her extra-great vacation. I will be seeing if I can talk Gran-Gran into this crazy double ring and since she reads the blog, its a great way to start, right?

Tonight is our last night going out in Innsbruck. Our art exam went really well (we are pretty sure we over-studied), but Liz is mad at me because last night we were studying in our respective beds and she kept saying that she didn't know anything on our outline and I started reciting cases and page numbers. And since all we do in class is write notes back and forth and play online she thinks I've been reading art law under my covers at night while she is sleeping. She'll never know, but I won't lie, I can tell you some important facts about the importation/exportation of art if you want to send me a private message. Haha.
