Europe Post #2

Hereàs the next set of pictures.
Our next adventures...
Here is the the castle of Neuschwanstein, which Disney used as the model for the Sleeping Beauty Castle. It was so beautiful inside and out, but we got soaked!

Sporting some attractive Austrian Hats.


Katie fell in love with the massive sugar pretzel donuts in Salzburg.


In Salzburg Austria we hopped on the Official Sound of Music Tour. It was amazing.


Here we are 16 going on 17


Here's Katie in front of the Belvedere Palace. This is near an area where her dad served as a misisonary.


We traveled from Vienna to Venice in a night train. In our little room there were 6 couchettes. The others were filled with Koreans. We ended up talking about American movies and pop culture for a long time.

Here's a pic of us on the Rialto Bridge. It had a great view of the canal and gondolas.

Here's a shot of our first authentic Gelato. Words can't describe how good it tastes.
He is a shot of the venetian streetway, aka, the rivers! It was a beautiful little town. Imported sideways. sorry

Hey Kurt & Katie,

We loved checking out your Europe pictures and Julie and I felt like we re-lived our trip from ten years ago through you!!! New Jersey misses you -- especially the ward. There will always be a home for you here. Keep up the great adventures!

Best,
J.D. & Julie Pelaez
