Edelweiss, Edelweiss, Every Morning you Greet me

Yay!  I'm updating again, just like I promised yesterday.  For the next couple of posts, i'll be dedicating each one to each place that I will be visiting this summer.  Today's post is dedicated to Vienna, Austria.

So, a little bit of insight on how this trip came about.  In October 2009, my mom and a bunch of her old nursing school classmates went to Las Vegas for a little mini reunion.  One her classmates currently lives in Vienna and invited us to visit them.  The invitation has been in the back of my mom's mind and she always thought it would a great 25th Wedding Anniversary trip.  So, almost 3 years later, she planned a trip to Vienna for her 25th Wedding Anniversary(as you can tell...my dad really had no say in the matter)...I just decided to tag along as their unofficial chaperon (you know...to make sure there won't be a little sibling in the future to usurp me...I KID KID!!!)

Anyways, now on to the topic of this post.  While in Vienna, I would LOVE to see these places:

Schonbrunn Palace
 

Hofburg Palace


Belvedere Palace


St. Stephen's Cathedral


St. Charle's Church


Freud Museum


Kunsthistorisches museum (Art Museum)


Austrian National Library



My inner nerd is TOTALLY loving the national library.  Isn't it cool looking!?  It sort of reminds of the library in Disney's "Beauty and the Beast" but less brighter (but just as GORGEOUS!).

See my blog tomorrow for Salzburg!
