We were so excited that our next door neighbor from Dripping Springs decided to pay us a visit! Leyla spent most of the month of May in Russia visiting friends and family, and on her way home to the states, she stopped here in Vienna for a few days. It was great to see her, and we had a fabulous time catching up, laughing, and sightseeing. Although Leyla has already experienced a lot of Europe, this was her first time to Vienna, and I had a great time showing her around. Thanks for coming Leyla!!

Here are the highlights:

At Stephansdom. No photo will ever capture how large this church really is.

Inside Peterskirche. One of my personal favorites. Amazing.

Enjoying some super yummy gelato on a perfectly sunny day.

Leyla treated us to yummy krapfen. The kids were super excited.

In front of the horse fountain at Schoenbrunn.

A visit to the zoo. Sleepy lions.

An adorably photogenic red panda.

And a super playful, swimming polar bear!

The kids really loved having Leyla here. It was a quick, but super fun visit!! Come again soon, Leyla!
