We flew into croatia today and spent a lot of time in Charles de Gaule airport.
There was a PS5 with fifa on it in the airport!
We went on a kayaking tour with a stop for some phenomenal swimming and videos!
Today we went into the old city, and we walked around. We ate pizza for lunch at a great spot, and had some great gelato. Then we went up to the top and walked around the outer wall of the city.
Today was our last full day in Croatia and overall it was a long one. We started off with a biggie tour of the Dubrovnik area and even coming within a stones throw from \240Bosnia and Herzegovina. Then that after noon we went to the beach and rode a pedal boat with a slide!
Today was a travel day! We flew from Croatia to Vienna where we are staying at the Ritz! When we got to the Hotel he got an incredible surprise! The surprise, we got upgraded to the Albertina suite! Tonight I also got to watch my favorite soccer team win the UEFA Champions League!
Today we spent our first full day in Austria by going to the Sisi Museum at the royal palace in Vienna. We also had three street \240sausages for lunch and they were all terrific. Then for dinner we went to the oldest restaurant in Vienna where we split a beef soup with noodles and veggies to start where I then got a Wiener schnitzel the size of my head and split an apple streudle for dessert.
Another travel day! Today we first went to St. Stephen’s Cathedral which was absolutely beautiful.

Today was a great day! We got a little bit of a late start because of a late bus. We first went all the way to the Top of Innsbruck and climbed up all the way yo the top of the mountain and took in a breathtaking view.
After getting some lunch we then made our way outside of town to the Swarovski Crystal Museum. The museum was amazing with some incredible rooms.

Today was a travel day into Munich. Not much from the morning other than an hour and a half train ride. The afternoon though is when it got fun. This afternoon we did a (somewhat scary) Segway tour of most of the main things in Munich.
