vienna: part 2

Schönbrunn Palace

palace from the back

palace gardens
we walked through the palace gardens down the path to the vienna zoo (or tiergarten, as they say) which happens to be the oldest zoo in the world- founded in 1752! ivy of course absolutely loved it. it was fun watching her make the different animal noises. i think her favorite was the seals.





our last night, we had dinner at the legendary cafe mozart, which was also right around the corner from our hotel. i loved this place! it was fancy but casual at the same time, with a great menu and cozy feel. loved it loved it. i had the pumpkin soup which was so delicious and the quiche lorraine. all really good. ivy had her first little bite of lamb :) make the stop if you're ever in vienna!
the end.
