Europe....here I come

Oh my gosh you people are nuts! I miss you already! Really wishing I didn't spend only one day there but what can ya do.

Sort of skimping on this update....Vienna was rushed - we got a good day in yesterday in the museum district, checking out the Hofsburg Palace, Museum of Fine Arts, and the outside film festival at Rathesplatz...whatever that was, it was pretty! Then just chilled and shopped on the way home. I'm happy to report that I resisted the urge to buy shoes until Italy.

Then last night was craaazy, I can't believe I went out with a 5am checkout but peer pressure...it's a thing. Wombats, yes you can thank us for bringing the party to you. I want a copy of those photos! Ok, gotta rush and meet a bud for dinner so I'll report tomorrow with the Venice entry.

Ciao!

So...I am currently going on 51 hours without sleep, which isn't the most brilliant idea ever. After the late night at the Prague clubs I was too wound up to sleep for the 3 hours I had. And then last night WOULD have been an early night, had we not wandered over half the city, searching for a bar that may or may not exist, being led by an idiot American who had just arrived and figured she could find her way everywhere. Yeah, except not so much.

We did finally end up at an excellent bar that leads down into the catecombs (sp?) of Prague - room after cavernous room down stairs and tight little hallways. It was great stuff. Add in a few crazy, random Aussies, some spontaneous quarters games (note to all: Czech crowns don't work as well. And beer mugs are higher. Pass it on.), and well, the fact that it was midnight already....Danielle and I decided it would be silly to dash home for 4 hours and then try to get up for the train. So we just slept on the train...badly.

Now I am happily washing clothes at the hostel in Vienna while she naps so I'd better go figure out what we're gonna do tomorrow while sightseeing. Take care everyone! Who knows the German word for aspirin?
