Aaron had a few days off over Easter weekend so we decided to make
Vienna, Austria our next place of exploration.

getting ready to see the Lego movie…saw Captain America the following day :)

Taking the Subway around is so much better than driving!

We went inside and watched the trainers work with the Lipizzaner Stallions.

One day we took the train to Bratislava, Slovakia.
It was less than an hour away so we decided why not!
