my weekend

what a totally wonderful long weekend. i took friday off work to spend the day with our dear friend visiting us. and we were fortunate that monday was another bank holiday here in austria (woo hoo!).
we walked miles this weekend (with lots of relaxing bits too) but i never tire of showing our friends and family the sights of the city we now call home and i was so happy and excited to have sherry here. we hadn't seen each other for over one year but walking down the street chatting on friday we realised that it didn't feel like all that time had passed at all. she left vienna on sunday and kev and i spent the rest of the long weekend reading in the park and relaxing at home (i read to kill a mockingbird in one day. i cannot believe it has taken me all this time to read it! what a book!).

and i would like to add that the ice cream is not mine but one we passed down by the canal. what a waste!
we did however try out a new ice cream shop called eis greissler. it is AMAZING! they use organic milk from their own cows, and all natural ingredients. they even produce some vegan options (which is pretty rare for vienna). everyone must go and try their ice cream! (and no, i'm not being paid to say this!).
