Ciao!

Very quick update: train ride went well, Venice is gorgeous but our hotel doesn't have a computer for us to use. I'm stealing wireless from the lobby and will try to post pics but might not be able to for a couple days! Ok off to catch the boat to San marco!

More Vienna Pictures

Well today was our last day in Vienna, and I'm sad to say I was unable to find a proper hill to sing on. Sad. It's ok though, we found plenty of other stuff to do!

Here is one of the museum's in Museum Quarter. Pretty.

Here I am (yes I know my eyes are closed) in front of another museum. (Kerri I found the Vermeer playing cards!)

GODZILLA attacks tiny church! Karoline says "What is this, a church for ANTS?? It needs to be at least...3 times this big!!!"

Kahlenburg...on top of a big mountain overlooking the city, which you can see behind us. Blue Danube on the left.

Candles inside of Stephanskirch in Stephansplatz. I like saying platz.

Ok that is all from Vienna! Auf Weidersein Vienna! Ciao Venice!

Guten Tag!

So today Karoline and I arrived in Vienna!! It's very pretty and I can't wait to see more tomorrow. Originally we were going to stay in a hostel tonight, but we're staying with another one of her relatives instead! Tomorrow night is our first overnight train to Venice, eep! It's like 12 hours or something insane like that, but I know we'll be fine! Ok here are pics.



At Praha Holesevice train station about to board our train.
On the train on the way to Vienna! It was a 6 person car but onlz Karoline and I were there so we got to spread out our stuff and relax. And take like 4 catnaps, which is my new favorite thing to do.

Schonbrunn Palace! I think that is how you spell it. Anyway, I'm going to live there now. It is GORGEOUS and I love castles and palaces. Sooo pretty.

HELLO PRETTY PALACE. There were a ton of gardens, fountains, and paths all over the place.

This is where I will serve afternoon tea, join me, won't you?

Karoline and I standing in one of the many lovely archways, this one was lined with roses.

More Vienna sightseeing tomorrow, then catching the 830pm to Venice! I can't remember if the place we're staying there has wireless, but if it does I'll continue to update!!

More Prague!

On the free walking tour: Prague Palace is on the other side of the river.

In front of...of course I forget the name right now but it is used as a concert hall; very pretty.

That's the Charles Bridge in the distance; I posted pics from there last night! We were crossing the river using a different bridge on this tour.

Vienna tomorrow morning!!

Pictures from Prague

View from The Charles Bridge at night.

View from the top of the tower in Old Town Square. See the rooftop restaurant?

Me at the top of the tower. A liiiiiittle afraid of the height.

In Old Town Square; that's the tower we went to the top of!


Enjoying a Czech beer with dinner!

Pictures from Poland

Apparently I don't know how to post pictures onto Blogger so that they'll appear in order but whatever! Above is a picture of me in Bielawa town square, the town where Karoline's realtives live! The owl statue is supposedly a good luck tradition for newly married couples; they walk to the owl and if he flaps his wings it means they'll have a good marriage (but he obviously cannot flap his wings so...hmm).
Ok this was the spread that awaited us pretty much everywhere we went. This was at Karoline's grandfather's house. FOOD! Seriously it was insane how much food was made. This meal had fruit soup, beet soup, salad, pasta, pierogies, little croissant roll thingies...unbelieveable. And THEN there was a table just as big for dessert!


Here I am in the center of Wroclaw; Karoline and I spent a nice afternoon walking around here.Here we are just about to eat breakfast (note the soymilk next to me! Yay!). You also see cakes, tomatoes, rolls, cheese, meat, strawberries, and frankfurters.



Here I am sitting at the breakfast table. NOM!


This is Karoline's Aunt and Uncle's house! And that's Karoline's brother up on the deck. And that's her grandfather's car.

Yay Poland!

Prague, cont'd

Then we headed right for old town and it was so pretty- much more of what I was hoping to see!! Went to the top of the tower to get some great views and then went to a traditional Czech restaurant for dinner. Karoline had goulosh!! And we had Czech beer- not bad. the streets here a bit confusing but we're making our way around really well!! Oh also walked across Charles Bridge and saw a german reporter filming for something. And now we're back in the hostel! Time for bed so we can get a decent start tomorrow :) and I will try my best to post pics on the computer here but it's really slow (so slow that I'm writing this on my iPod instead of use it). Night!!
