This was our last day in Vienna, and we had planned it to be a lazy day, mostly because we had a four-hour drive back home. However, we were told by a few people that we needed to stop at this little restaurant and sample their ribs. The restaurant was not in the older part of the city, so we had to drive a few minutes, but it was totally worth it.
We sat on the patio outside, and this was our view.
Helllooooooo ribs!
The BEST ribs either one of us have ever had. I'd go back to Vienna just for these.
After lunch we took a walk along the water, and ran into these rowing machines. So we let the kids play around for a while, and let them believe they were training for the olympics.
On the drive to Vienna, we noticed a huge Abbey about an hour away from the city. We quickly looked it up in our guide book and discovered it was the Melk Abbey. So on our way home, we made a stop in Melk to check it out. We got there right as the Abbey was closing, so we decided to take a walk around the grounds.
Hard to see it, but the three kings haven't visited this building since 2009.
Although we got there too late to see inside the Abbey, we were able to go inside the church that was part of it. It was so quiet in here that we only took one kid in at a time. This is one of the most beautiful things I have seen. I thought that I had seen plenty of the Baroque style churches for my entire lifetime, but this one was just amazing.
This door was just Cooper's size.
