Austria Part 2: What we did

I'm going to say this again, it is realllly hard to go through hundreds of pictures.  Isn't it crazy how technology allows us to easily take so many pictures?  Yet so many bad quality pictures too sometimes, haha.

Here's a continuation in pictures, of some things we did while we were in Austria.


We met "Soccer," my Brother-in-law's wife's (pregnant!) horse.  I'm a sucker for horses


Weirdo.

 One of Soccer's stable buddies



Stayed at The Ritz-Carlton Vienna to celebrate our wedding anniversary (while I still had RC benefits)
Too bad they didn't read our "guest notes" that we don't drink alcohol: minus 2 pts.

RC has the BEST fluffy beds.

Went to the Globe Museum!  I LOVE all things globes and maps! Very impressive collection.

Old ones!

Normal ones!

ITTY BITTY CUTIE PATUTIE ONES!!

How much for the globe clock, kind sir?

Even in dim lighting you can see my, "I LOVE GLOBES!!!" face.

Went on a really tall building to see Vienna from above


Up next: places we saw, to be continued.

Catching up- Austria: Part 1

Oh my. It has been a while since I last blogged, hasn't it?  A lot has happened since the last time I blogged so let's get right to it, shall we?

In August we went to Austria!  It was just under a week, so it was a short trip, especially for overseas. The reason for our trip was because Wolfgang's sister got married!  I will apologize in advance that we didn't take very good pictures {my mom even called me out on it, thanks mom.}

So in my first series of pictures/post of this trip, here are some pictures from the wedding.

The wedding was a traditional Austrian wedding, which was fun.  Everyone wore Lederhosen and Dirndls (google it, or look below!) including us!  I wasn't excited when I first heard I had to wear a dirndl, but it wasn't so bad after all, and especially since everyone else was wearing one too.  I was definitely channeling Julie Andrews in "The Sound of Music"  {short hair and all} but I didn't even get to take a, "The hills are alive!" picture like I so desperately wanted to!  I'll blame my husband.

The newlyweds

some fun and traditional games during the reception

 The moment some of you been waiting for: seeing Wolfgang in the lederhosen, and me in a dirndl! Pic with my brother-in-law and his wife, who got hitched last year

 Adorable?!  Husband and nephew, son of the new married couple

Yours truly.

Wolfgang did his hair. Can you tell?

Now this concludes Part 1; it's bedtime!  This is such a big deal that I'm finally doing this, I should reward myself with a brownie.  that I made tonight.

To be continued.
