Finally made it back to Vienna after 2 previous failed attempts (once for locking ourselves out of the apartment, which required us to ask a neighbor to please call a locksmith).  The day we went was about as gorgeous of a day as it gets in Vienna. Perfect.

The Schönbrunn Palace is where royals used to live and the surrounding gardens definitely portray this. The palace and grounds are so expansive that we could have spent all day exploring those areas alone. But we thought Skye would enjoy the zoo (the world’s oldest) more, so we started out there and never had to time to do any of the other million things they offer there (marionette shows, concerts, strudel show, touring the palace itself, etc).

Bratislava Castle has been under construction and wrapped with scaffolding before we even got here. We were told it would be under construction until sometime in 2010, but apparently they’ve finished the outside and removed the scaffolding in time for us to see it. So we took a walk down to the castle and snapped some pics while we could.  (The Castle is still under construction, but all the work is being done on the inside now.)

we were just hanging out, listening to some music. Skye and I were bustin a little groove, and threw down some liquid, and she followed right behind with some of her own. I thought it was pretty amazing, so I grabbed a camera, and while Chels showed Skye some more liquid just off camera, Skye followed right along, again.

that is… until the A.D.D. kicked in and she found something more exciting.
