Europe

Beth and I just finished a Christmas visit to Berlin, Prague, Vienna, and Budapest.  Great trip.  It was amazing that we were able to go wherever we wanted without resorting to getting into a car except twice.  This was mainly for convenience, as at the beginning of the trip we were pretty heavily laden with baggage, which was fixed after that leg of our trip.  Other than the airport to hotel run at the beginning, and a quick trip to the train station, we utilized public transport for the entirety of our city transit.


This is a picture of the memorial marker for Mozart.  He isn't actually buried underneath the marker, as it was usual during his time for common people to be buried in mass graves, and several attempts to locate his body exactly were unsuccessful, even as soon as 10 years after his death.

more to come...
