Veinna and More

Here we are in Vienna and have seen the summer palaces of the royalty. It was designed by the same architech as the Palace of Versailles and is very similar only smaller. Very beautiful and interesting and much is original from the Hapsburg family that ruled for 640 years.

Tomorrow to Budapest.

I find it very interesting on how much has been rebuilt since WW ll. The cities are very modern in areas and old in other areas.

Back in Vince we did some sight seeing, had a marvelous fish dinner in a quaint restaurant on the fisherman's island. Seafood lasagna, seafood spread for the rolls, shrimp. calamari. etc. Very good, but Karen had steak.

We had a gondola ride with musicians, accordion and vocalist and a kiss under each bridge.

We have seen and enjoyed a lot of different cultures and have been eating the foold that is customary to the region we are visiting. The meals that are included in our tour are always the food of that particular area. Tomorrow we go on a Danube River Dinner cruise with Hungarian food. Should be good.

Karen has been having some balance problems and is getting bruised. Fell while stepping over the side of a bathtub, fell going into a shop. She is OK.
