Highly Amusing Travel Day

April 30, 2013

Today was a very long bus day. We left Prague and entered the open road toward our next destination of Bratislava, Slovakia.

After about four hours bus time we stopped for lunch at a mall where I had McDonald's for the first time in months. When ordering I felt like I was acting as a stereotypical American, so I ordered the six piece nuggets instead of the nine (they don't do ten in Europe). I found myself being overall satisfied with my nuggets and felt no guilt for eating at McDonald's. 

Following our lunch stop we had a two hour walking tour around the small capital of Slovakia. We saw many cute buildings and art pieces and then we were released for free time. The town only offered shopping and food so being poor travelers we decided to get so gelato and people watch as the time passed.

We proceeded to load the bus after this for the two hour trip to Vienna, Austria. We arrived at seven, dropped off our stuff, and then a group of us made our way to the amusement park of Austria.

I was really proud of Meleana's and my ability to navigate the group! We got us to the correct location with ease and then we all proceeded to find dinner in the park. 

After dinner explored the park. I didn't go on any rides because it was about $5 per ride but I did enjoy exploring and looking around.

Being here has really made me want to learn German, but reality says I should get a grasp on Spanish first sense I already invested four years into and don't seem to have much to show for it...I guess Colin and I need to make a trip to Spain or Central America soon haha. 

Vienna tour tomorrow! Best get some zzzzz's.
