Amsterdam 10/17-10/19

Amsterdam. Not at all a boring place, that's for sure.

René's - An absolute must if you are ever in Amsterdam. Out of this world pastries and coffee. Gotta try the Oliebollen, dutch donuts. It's a seasonal thing usually made during New Year's or Fun-fairs, and since I was lucky enough to be there during a Fun-fair they had them. Here's more on René's: http://www.ouramsterdamholidays.com/shops/renes-croissants/

This was awesome. So entertaining.

Prague to Hamburg 10/16

On our way to Amsterdam, we stopped over in Hamburg, Germany for one night as our resting point. We had a fun time messing with some of the Germans that we met on the DB (Deutsche Bahn) which is the German Railway. Those Germans can be so stern and needed to loosen up a bit. Rich was at one with his people, not!

Departing Prague - look at all our luggage!

German Police Man

We named our conductor Banan in honor of her banana clip. I haven't seen one of those since the 80s. She was such a witch in the beginning but ending up being really nice.

Dresden

Berlin

Hamburg, Germany - not much to see here.

Prague 10/13-10/16

Prague, like Venice is another one of those cities where you just can't take a horrible picture. Unlike the people there, it is really the most beautiful medieval city. I'm glad I didn't come here until toward the ending of my trip.

Venice to Vienna 10/12

I have to say, the scenic views from Venice to Vienna were probably the most beautiful. Fall was the perfect time of year to travel. Unfortunately, I didn't get pictures when we were traveling through the Austrian Alps. There was too much drama going on at the time. Switching from train-bus-train because of all these railway problems. Typical for us.

Venice, Italy 10/10-10/12

Not the place to come to if you have a shit load of luggage. It was a complete nightmare getting to the hotel. But, I have to say it was totally worth it. This is the kind of place wanna-be photographers need to come. You don't have to know shit about photography to take a decent picture. Like in Rome, the food wasn't all that fabulous, but the wine was good. I managed to escape Venice without falling into a canal.
