For her birthday, our friend Bethany wanted to go to the Naturhistorishces Museum Wien (Vienna Natural History Museum). It turned out that the day we wanted to go, the museum was offering a rooftop tour in English. It was awesome! We had great views of the city, plus we were also the only people on the tour which was super cool. You can see all the pictures here: Rooftops of Vienna
Whoa! I cannot believe it’s been almost two months since we’ve blogged. What is it about summer that makes us do such a poor job of keeping this thing going? Oh yeah, we’re so busy having fun that we just don’t have time. 🙂 Here are some of the things that have been keeping us busy over the last couple of months:

We made it to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, and it was awesome! I got to wear my “Snitches be Crazy” shirt which made me  super happy. We drank pumpkin juice and butterbeer, rode a dragon, visited Hogwarts, and walked through the shops in Diagon Alley. It was SO MUCH FUN! If you are a big Harry Potter fan, it’s definitely worth the trip. I’m glad Matt’s parents live here, because that means we can go again. 🙂 You can see a few more pics here: American Summer Tour.
Over the last few years, I’ve had a number of moments that have made me feel decidedly older. Turning 40 was kind of a big one. However, today may have been the clincher. While eating lunch at The Good Dog, I was thoroughly enjoying the music being played because it was all music that I listened to in high school. I was feeling good, singing along, reminiscing. Then I looked up. Above Matt’s head was the video to go along with the music. Apparently, we were listening to “Classic Alternative.” CLASSIC! I am not prepared for this milestone. Not at all.
