From Vienna to Zagreb, Croatia


Today we ended our short but sweet time touring Vienna. Although it was a rainy day, there was still plenty of sightseeing and tasty food to be consumed. A few of us broke away from the group and saw this spectacular palace. They were doing some kind of reconstruction, but it was amazing and the architecture was even better. It seemed as though ever building that we looked at had a different style of architecture. We also found the United States embassy when we were adventuring. Do not worry nothing happened, but it did feel reassuring when people were speaking English.



Now today was not all fun and games. We had an intense bus ride that took a good 8 hours if you include all the border crossings and stops we made along the way. We arrived at Zagreb, Croatia around 7pm local time, which is around 1pm Eastern time in the States. We are living in a hostel until Thursday, but do not get the wrong impression. This hostel is actually really nice; it comes with sheet and the works. The weather got better as soon as we got to the hostile; nice and sunny. Now it is time to do some exploring and try to figure out what is around us.
