I've been to Viena!




Hi there!

Welcome back! After such a long holiday, one feels a bit curious about what people did with their time-off; especially with that gorgeous weather which seemed to push you outdoors. Here is my Easter post!

I flew to Viena. I went with my family and we stayed in a hotel near the centre. We were there for four days.
We travelled around the city by underground; we visited the cathedral, several museums and palaces . We also saw some lovely parks and we enjoyed visiting Mozart's house.
My husband and my brother ran the Viena marathon. They say that it was a wonderful way of seeing the city.
I recommend it because it's a beautiful city.
