Weren't we in Austria Yesterday?

Time is going by so fast and i'm getting eaisly confused about were we are and were we have been. Actualy cannot believe that it is getting on for late July already!!!

This morning we had a look around Melk, it is such a cute town and the Abbey was amazing. it is a massive yellow and white Baroque building and so beautiful. Every room was beaultfuly decorated with painted ceilings and eloborate gold everywhere. the church itsself was amazing with so much gold everywhere and we were also fortunate enough to hear the Seattle Girls Choir sing a few songs while they were there too. The acoustics were so beautiful.





On the road again to the Czech Republic now and we are in Cesky Krumlov which is totally cute also. The river which runs through the town is popular for canoeing and rafting and although we didnt give it a go (its hot here still but not that hot by the time we had our accomodation sorted) we did have a good laugh at all the people trying to get down the some of the rapids and falling out. We are staying in a pension right in the middle of the town which is awesome. we ate our dinner in a wee cafe by the river with a live band playing a mix of songs in Czech and heavily accented English, awesomness!!!
