Our First Visitor

This month, we had our first visitor! It was Miriam Storm, a delightful woman we've known since she was a teenager. We were thrilled to see her. We hit some sites with her - she was ever so patient with our kids (and us!). We've held off on doing much Sight Seeing around here. We figured we'd get visitors occasionally and it might be fun to experience some of those things with them. With Miriam we got to tackle two great ones. The first was Schonbrunn Gardens.

We walked the grounds, got everyone tired and finished it off with some ice cream.

The second place we visited was the Belvedere which has an amazing art collection. (No pictures... sorry)

It also houses the infamous painting by Gustav Klimt "The Kiss". The painting was much grander and beautiful than I anticipated. It definitely wasn't a disappointment like The Mona Lisa... Miriam is getting her Masters in Art History at St. Andrews (in Scotland) - so we had a very insightful "tour guide".
