Category ‘09.15 – Austria’
It seems like so long ago that Ben and I went biking along the Danube River in Austria, but it’s only been a little over a week. Compared to where we’ve been since – Budapest and Venice – it was so sunny and even hot.
So anyway, while we were in Vienna I read about this bike trail nearby along the Danube River, and we decided to give it a shot.

Our couchsurfing host in Vienna rock climbs after work twice a week, so she took us with last Monday. We had fun and totally wore ourselves out. Our hands and forearms were really sore after 2-3 climbs (but I think that means we weren’t doing it right…).
I’ve been slowing down on the blog lately, I know. It takes a bit of time and usually I enjoy it… but the last couple of weeks I’ve been appreciating my time off and relaxing a little more (in other words, being lazy). So for those of you who are following along, here’s a quick update. I hope to post more about these places later.
FYI, even when I’m not posting I usually keep the “Where are we now?” box on the right side of the page up to date, and every once in a while I update the map on the “Travel Plans” page at the top menu. And if that’s not enough, join Facebook and add Ben and I to your friend list, we add things there occasionally too.
