Germany Part II -- Vienna (yes, that's really in Austria)
N&A: We were fortunate to be able to visit our friends the Fultons at their home in Vienna! They live on the 8th floor, and they have a really cool elevator and a parking garage where things move around when you press buttons.
A: Linus (green) and Timon (gray) took very good care of me.
N&A: Vienna is a big city, and we were a little overwhelmed by the downtown area with busy streets and tall buildings, but we loved the parks, and taking the Strassenbahn (streetcar) U-Bahn (subway) was pretty cool too.
N&A: This 400-yr-old farmhouse on the grounds of the Schoenbrunnen Palace was one of the places we really enjoyed (especially the free cheese). Here we are in Herr Gott's Winkel in the Gute Stuebe with our fabulous tour guides.
A: Da da da da da....da da...da da. This is me swimming in the Danube. Ok, it's the old Danube, so it's more of a lake nowadays (the Viennese moved the river to a more convenient location a while back). And this is actually a kiddie pool right next to the old Danube.
A: It was my first time swimming and I loved it!
A: Sacked out afterwards....
