We arrived in the late morning on Wednesday and after getting settled into our airconditionerless hotel room set out to find lunch and somewhere to exchange some money. We've been spoiled in Kyiv as when we change money we get back a whole lot more (exchange rate is 8.4 griven to 1 USD) but the Euro doesn't quite work in our favor. The Euro exchange rate was 1 Euro to about $1.43 USD and prices seemed to be a bit higher everywhere. Needless to say we blew through a lot of money on our trip, mostly on food.
For our first lunch we sat outside and had a plate of schnitzel which was pretty tasty and of course of German brew to wash it all down.

I checked the weather forecast before we left and swear that it said it was going to be in the low 70's the entire time we were there...wrong! The first few days were sweltering hot. Eric nor I packed shorts and Keenan had 1 pair that he got to wear over and over again. We found a nice park not far from our hotel that had an awesome sand play area. Most of the kids were running around in their under-roos or nothing at all so we stripped Keenan down too but, made him keep on his undies.
Traveling wore Keenan out!

Sounds like a great trip! I love the pic of you guys eating lunch. It looks like every meal I've ever eaten in Germany/Austria - schnitzel and fries. :)
Sounds like fun, except for no airconditioning. My parents loved Germany when they went years ago. Love, Louise
