our last day

vienna was our last stop before heading to berlin

to begin david's semester abroad in potsdam

we decided to go to the natural history museum

it's enormous- i'm pretty sure that we spent at least 4 hours there.

not really sure why darwin is riding the tortoise

dory and some axolotls

a lion is about to attack him and he doesn't even care

one of my favorites

photography by david

a little break after our many hours of wandering

mozart

stephansdom

the gasthaus that we ate at every night.

it's delicious- soup and schnitzel for 5.80 euro

and then we headed to the westbahnhof for our overnight train

schloß schönbrunn

for our second day in vienna,

we took the metro to schloß schönbrunn,

the habsburg palace

what you see when you first walk through the gates

in the gardens

maze

the back of the palace

each of the squares made a noise when you stepped on it,

so of course i danced all over it

only.. the coolest playground on the face of the planet

you could CLIMB INTO the bird

and there were trick mirrors (:

we went to an apple streusel demonstration

then took our final turn around these gardens before heading back

sometimes i don't know how it's possible

to love being with someone this much

vienna, Tag eins

in the midst of our planning,

david and i realized that we'd have an extra day in vienna

because we were taking an overnight train to berlin the night of our third day.

with that in mind, our first day was very lazy,

but very lovely

Kunsthistorisches Museum

(museum of fine arts)

big statue in the middle of the platz...

and the natural history museum was on the other side

Volksgarten

Spanische Hofreitschule

(spanish riding school)

ADORABLE little dress i saw in a window...

one of the main shopping streets

(this is funny because "garibaldi" is david's last name..)

our first of THREE NIGHTS at Gasthaus Franceschi

david and his delicious schnitzel

me and my very very foamy beer

more of wien to come (:
