We took Eastern Europe by storm with a 2 week road trip through the Czech Republic, Austria, Hungary, Slovakia and Poland. The trip was amazing, despite dealing with floods, hurricane winds, torrential down pours, horrible maps and wrong turns and a cooped up cranky toddler. Here are some pictures to show the journey.
Cesky Krumlov, Czech Republic- the main square. Love the colorfulness
Incredible dessert made by wrapping dough around a metal looking rolling pin and roasting it over a fire. Yum yum.

Budapest, Hungary- a gorgeous city!
The boat ride we took on the Danube River- great way to see the sites and stay dry in the horrible rain!

We were so lucky to meet up with Shane's sister in Prague. Her college choir was on tour in Prague, so we saw them sing and were able to spend some free time with Melissa. Kayden loved hanging out with her "MiMi"
