May 22 - we started our transatlantic journey at CVG. Three airplanes, 24 hours, and thousands of miles later, we would reach Vienna, Austria, our Euro Adventure Headquarters.
May 23 - we arrived in Vienna around noon and headed to my sister and brother-in-law's house. They moved in just last year, so this was our first visit to their new place, a beautiful and very spacious villa (or some say palais) built in 1884 which is under historical preservation in the city and which my sister and her husband restored at great effort. We settled in for an afternoon and evening at home, relaxing and catching up. We definitely felt the love.

May 24 - we got a full night's sleep - incredible after the trip with all the jetlag going on. We took a stroll through the neighborhood in the morning and visited a nearby playground where we met a bunch of five and six year olds who all spoke impressively decent English. After a nap, we headed to city center via a streetcar and just walked around for a bit, soaking up the old world charm. By late afternoon, we were back to the house and settled in with family for a leisurely evening.

May 25 - today was a holiday in Austria, so we got to hang out with family and just take it easy. We were getting spoiled with homemade meals and good company.
