Sorry about the delay on the blog from Budapest…I kinda ran out of time along the way & decided to just keep on writing day by day. But I really loved Budapest, & if for no other reason than that I don't want to forget all the wonderful things we did there I'm going to try & write it all down now! :) On Thursday morning we said Auf Wiedersehen to Vienna & took the train further south & east to Budapest, the capital of Hungary.

On our second day in Vienna we started out with a trip to the Sigmund Freud museum. It's situated inside Freud's actual home/office from the time that he lived in Vienna, which was for the majority of the time he was doing his most important work in psychology.

Thus far it seemed that whenever we tried to go out for a night on the town something went wrong…I was sick, or you needed some stupid reservation to get into a club, or we got lost, or the bar was closed for renovations!! I mean, I know I'm a bit of an old soul, but come on! Can I not have a successful night out Europe please?? Well yes, yes I can. We broke the curse in Prague :) W...
