City-o-my-dreams

How swell is this?
This city kicks,
Bootay, everyday in the mor-or-ning


Vienna wins hands down. The city is perfect, it has the most amazing buildings: castles, palaces, museums, statues, and shops, but it also manages to be non-intrusively modern, so you can still have fun. Everyone in Europe has a dog and has bad breath and BO that smells like salami, but they also have good fashion and are pretty quite which is braggable.
I'm compiling a list of things I like and don't like about Europe.
Things I like:
Tons of cheap bakeries
Toilets have two flushing options, one for number 1, one for number 2. (I had this idea years ago)
Good Cake
Tons of coffees
Good public transportation
All cars are manual
The Coca-Cola is WAY better
Good History stuff
Poker on TV
Kateri and the nuns that stuff you full of goodies

Things I don't like
You have to pay for water :(
You have to pay to use the toilette:(
If you order tap water, the waiter frowns at you, or tells you they don't serve tap water in this establishment :((
Salami Breath
Dog Poo everywhere
Mean old nuns that won't let you get your laundry out of the washer because it's to late and she's trying to sleep so you have to carry a duffel bag full of wet laundry for 8 hours until you get to your hotel in Vienna so you can let it dry. Mean-face

Hey Everyone, internet is much harder to come by than we thought, so these blogs are scarce, sorry! Vienna is so much better than i thought, it is our favorite so far. we get free breakfast in our hotel, and it is delicious, and all the coffee shops here have tons of beautiful cakes on display. this city has such an old fashioned charm, it is the perfect romantic European city. yesterday we went to a huge palace that is now an art gallery and we got the see the painting "the kiss" by Klimt and "Napolean at St. Bernard" both are really famous paintings that you learn about in art history so it was very exciting. today we are going to a big market to shop areound and eat lunch, it should be fun, i will try to post some pics as soon as i can, but for now here are some of zak and me goofing around at the church of baby Jesus in Prague.
