Vienna to Melk
So we jumped a train to Melk this afternoon. After some thought, we decided that we had gotten everything we could from Vienna, and that it was time to move on. But we didn't leave the city of music before checking out a massive castle, schloss schoenbrunn, that Maria Theresa, and the other Hapsburgs, used as her summer home. I would have stayed there all year. Nice audio guide, but very crowded. It also had a cool courtyard and a maze AND a labryinth! don't get both usually.
So now we're in Melk, a much smaller and quainter Austrian town. It has a large monestary we will visit tommorrow, as well as some cool bike trails along the Blue Danube that we will also try out. Another reason to come here early was to get out of our crummy hotel in Vienna (bethany was starting to smell bad, since she wouldn´t brave the scary shower) Its very nice here, and we should have a good time.
No other celebrity sightings as of yet, but I'm hoping for the front man of Weezer, to keep up the large plastic glasses theme.
After this its on to the Czech Repulic for another small and cool town.
