1.Schloss Neuschwanstein - a long rainy trek to see this castle, which served as the inspration for Disney's Sleeping Beauty Castle

2.  View of Hohenschwangau Castle as we were walking to Neuschwanstein.  I actually liked the interior of this castle better.

3.  Schloss Nymphenburg - no photos allowed inside.

 

4.  The best "wursts" we had during the entire trip.  So good we went back twice.

5.  This was the third time we went.  The kiosk was closed the second time we went.

6.  It was colder than we prepared for, so I "had to" buy these boots, heehee.

7.  View from our apartment in Prague.

8.  Delicious brunch at Cafe Louvre.

9.  Got into Mlejnice on our second attempt.

 

10.  Love the quote.

11.  The Astronomical Clock.

12.  Guess who we ran into while walking the streets of Prague?

 

13.  One of the groomsmen and the emcee at our wedding! What an incredible coincidence! 

14.  Found the cover of the guidebook.

15.  Birthday macarons from my cousin who lives in London and decided to join us for a few days in Prague.

22.  Guess where we are? 

23.  Trzesniewski - serves assorted teeny tiny yummy sandwiches.

24.  "Look, Papa, a fountain!"

 

25.  The best dessert we had in Vienna was this kardinaschnitte at the Schonbrunn Palace cafe. Way better than all the sacher tortes and apfelstrudels I tasted during out entire trip.  

26.  Probably Harvey's most fun moment of the whole trip was this construction area in the playground by the Maze/Labyrinth by the palace gardens.

27.  My cousin joined us again for 2 days in vienna.  Bratwursts yum!

32.  Vienna International Airport (VIE)

Farewell 01106

 

It's been a great 4.5 years and we've loved every minute of it.  Everything's packed and in storage, so expect extremely sporadic updates. Moving to this little town took a bit of getting used to after living in big cities all my life, but we grew to love the walkable town, fall foliage, the proximity to so many New England towns and NYC, and our friends and neighbors.  You will all be missed.

 

Harvey will miss the playground, and the Oh girls, who came over to say goodbye the day before.

Farewell, and thanks for the memories, 01106!
