Vienna – I’ve been to 48 States and a dozen or more countries and they’ve always been the same, I either liked it or I didn’t. I’ve never been more at home or comfortable than here in Vienna. It could have been that we came from Prague, and that while it was amazing, it was a little different – especially the train station.

We spent time taking a tour around the city – okay, I slept through it – but we took a tour and then visited the Hapsburg’s summer palace. That evening we walked around the ringstrauss and went to the opera. The next day was our trip to Budapest, so on Saturday I got up early to explore. It was really fantastic. I went to the imperial apartments, the Spanish Riding School where the Lipizzaner Stations are trained, St. Stephen’s Cathedral and took a tour of the opera house. I’m so glad I got a chance to just explore a little. I would absolutely go back!
