Vienna Day 7: In Salzburg with friends
Today we woke up the soothing pitter patter of rain on the windows. We had a good run. We made it this far in a December trip to Europe with no rain, so we really can’t complain. When we headed outside we found that our Airbnb host had left a little gift for us outside…

Austria Day 6: Traveling to Salzburg and being visited by Krampus.
Hello, hello. After a long day and late night (for me) in Budapest, something amazing happened. For the first time in remembered history, I slept in later than Jimmy. It was weird. To be fair, I still woke up at 8:30, because I’m me and can’t really ever sleep in too late, but that was…

Vienna Day 2: Stallions, Anime, Books, and Ballerinas. An eclectic day
A little bit of everything for everyone on our itinerary today. First off, I woke up completely awake and alert at 2am this morning. Basically, I spent 2 hours hoping to fall back asleep, then two and a half more hours getting much further in my book than I had originally anticipated. Around 6:30am Jimmy…

Ireland Day 6: Blown away by the Cliffs of Moher
Hello everyone! Today was quite an adventure. We had planned on visiting the city of Galway today for some food and shopping, but we looked out our window this morning and saw a break in the clouds, and decided to head out and try to catch the Cliffs of Moher instead. We all got up…

Ireland Day 5: Hobbits, Fancy Tea, and late night at the pub
Hello everyone! Another lovely day on the Emerald Isle. Jimmy and I got up early this morning and ditched the family in search of a true Irish fry breakfast, and did we hit the jackpot. The Shire is hobbit themed (although to be Frank it was a bit light on the hobbit theming. Still cute,…
