Europe 2013...

If you follow me on Instagram you may have already noticed some pics from different parts of Europe...

Since this was going to be one of the last long haul trips we decided on Paris, Vienna, Florence and Milan...

Some highlights below...

Laduree desserts...

Hall of Mirrors in Versailles (we booked a tour for a friday 2pm, highly recommend going in the afternoon and booking with a guide.)

The Rosewood room in Schonbrunn Palace (many of the centre panels we being restored when we visited)

Wonderful musical in Vienna...Elisabeth (highly recommend, still humming the tunes...)

Hoher Markt Clock... (played music but the figures were broken...hopefully they will be fixed sooner than later)

Favorite place in the world...Ponte Vecchio in Florence
(sadly couldn't find what I was looking for...)

The best ice-cream!!! Hazelnut with chocolate centre (that's the chocolate oozing out from the centre)

Comfortable ride on the train from Florence to Milan

The Duomo in Milan (wasn't allowed in, was wearing a skirt :( )

Side note: This trip I relied heavily on trip advisor, from what to do, places to stay and where to eat. All I can say is you pay for what you get. So my advice is research, triple check and get feedback from your travel agent, and lastly cross check with the actual website.
