Last weekend Matt and I got a 3 1/2 day visit from Kim, Matt's mother.
Aren't they cute?
Exactly one year before this trip, Kim was visiting us with Sean, Matt's brother. On top of that, it is also Kim's birthday when she comes for visits. I think this is starting to become tradition.
Anyways, Kim had the idea to go to Innsbruck, Austria this year, a little place tucked in the alps. Matt and I really didn't know much about Innsbruck before we went there, except that it was close to the alps and we would be hiking... We were excited to go, but basically felt the same about the trip as we have every other place. Now having been, I must say that place is hands down the most beautiful place I probably have ever been to. The alps were breathtaking. They are HUGE! It's like nothing I really have ever seen before. Innsbruck itself was awesome too. It wasn't a big city like Munich or London, it was the perfect size with lots of culture, plenty to do, and beautiful buildings. I didn't feel overwhelmed by high prices or lots of tourists. It was just right. So, thanks Kim for wanting to go to such a nice place, I don't know if I will ever go back there but I won't forget it.
Here are some photos (although they really don't do it justice):

ReplyDeleteThe mountains and waterfalls look breathtakingly beautiful! Guess I'll need to add Austria to the list of places I should visit in this lifetime!
