A Few Europe Pics

Yes yes, we got back two and a half weeks ago, but better late than never, eh?

We loved our recent trip to Prague and Vienna. Love love loved. I thought I'd put a few of our many (many many) pictures on the blog and let Ryan put lots more on FB, seeing how it's lots quicker. Here's Ryan looking very dapper in Austria's wine country. Actually, I think the whole country was wine country.

We got to see some pretty amazing museums. You are definitely not supposed to touch the ancient Roman artifacts, though.

One of the days we took a boat way out into the countryside and rode back 20+ miles through the little villages, farms, orchards, and vineyards on these 3-speed rented bikes. Couldn't feel my legs till the next morning (at which point I could really feel them) but it was sooooooo worth it!
A little experimentation with B&W photography here. Dramatic, no? Seeing these Gothic cathedrals in person pretty much changed my life forever. Seriously. I cried.

This is St. Vitus Cathedral in Prague.

We snapped this our first night in Prague. That little boat rental place to the right is where we got the rowboat in the next picture.
Ryan doing his manly duty and rowing our boat. We got some pretty strange looks from old ladies when we switched places and I rowed. People even took pictures of us.

Check back soon, because lots of pictures of Rose are coming up next! She's the one everyone really wants to see anyway, right?

  3. I like that picture of you breaking the rules in the museum. It reminds me of how Rose points to everything she wants... Did you want that vase?
