Two bicycles leaned against a stone barrier

Our bikes!

Mulled wine. From Dominoes?

A food stand on the sidewalk

We pass by a flea market

My dad poses with a french fry

Burger King was the worst fast food on the trip, but had a good view of the town square

My father and his friend driving

We drive to pick up new camera lenses for me!

A woman walks in front of a white apartment building

I just really like this photograph

A BMW parks on a curb
A crescent shaped apartment complex

This apartment complex is where we got the second camera lens.

Our bikes leaning against a train station bench

We learn the hard way that bikes can add a lot of stress to getting on a train quickly

Pierogies and soup

Lunch in Rybnik

A helmet hangs from a train luggage rack
My father gets comfortable on a train ride

We relax on the umpteenth train ride of the day

Arrival in Vienna!

View of construction site outside of our hotel room window

A bad view, but a good location

A dozen parking restriction signs litter a sidewalk

12 signs for "Don't park here" seems excessive

My father stands next to a statue of Strauss
My father stands next to a statue of Bruckner

We visit a garden of famous composers

Vienna's subway system map drawn by an 11 year old and a crayon

Konstantin's map is a good start, but doesn't help us navigate the subway system.

Beautiful buildings in Vienna
A couple photograph something with their phones. There is a bright building through the doorway, so the door arch and the couple are silhouetted.
My father sits at a bench and looks at his phone

This generation and their phones...

A beige street with a "no horse-drawn carriages" sign.

No horse-drawn carriages allowed. This sign was probably a lot more common before 1910.

We tour the grounds of a royal palace

I learn about an orangery

And there's even a bush maze

Of course, photograph the photographer

And to round out the day, we see a performance at the local Opera

No longer in Vienna

One of my dad's favorite beer houses was here

In Salzburg is Mozart's childhood home.
