The first sight out of our hotel - streets of Vienna.


The palace of Schronbrunn. Ugly outside, but beautiful inside. (kinda like me)


And this is their university/church...


The state gardens, and in the background is where daily Strauss/Mozard concerts are held.


The interior of one of the many churches visited.

Esper at the tallest building in Vienna - St Stephan's Cathedral.


Getting sun burnt at Axamers Lizum, one of the 7 ski resorts at Innsbruck.


All prepped and ready to ski~


The view from the hotel.


Fans of the Sound of Music will recognize that house in the background..

Overlooking Salzburg with Esper being cute.

Now that I'm back, I've been thinking...

...that just almost year ago, I was blogging about my London trip, stating how I wish I could be travelling with a girl that I'd fancy. Never would I expect to find myself in a 3 month relationship a year later, even having travelled to one of the most romantic countries for a fortnight. There're up and downs, but ultimately, I would say that apart from being a 'just another holiday', this trip has been played an integral part in strengthening my relationship.

Anyway, 4 destinations within 13 days puts one's stamina to the test. Hopping on and off trains, dragging our baggages across streets from hotels to hotels, and cramping sightseeing together with shopping... phew!

But it was well worth it, having seen the charming city of Vienna and its architectures, the snow-capped mountain ranges of Innsbruck together with a brief skiing stint, the tranquil old town of Salzburg famous for the Sound of Music and Mozard, and of course the dreamy Schwangau area and its castles. Not to mention, the weather was fantastic as well - I'd glady trade the warm and humid feeling over anytime, even at the cost of my lips cracking. :D

Oh well, here are some photos to share and it's back to finding a job.

wow wow wee wa

Hrm, almost 2 months since my last post. Guess I've really been neglecting my blog. Much has happened since then... the fret over my examinations, my examinations itself, the results, valentine's day, chinese new year, all of which I failed to keep a record of.

In any case, things are going pretty well now, apart from the fact that I am slacking around instead of getting a job. Results were better than expected, enjoyed a great Valentine's and just got a lil ang pao bonus too. :D Been WoWing quite a bit these days too but I guess that'll end pretty soon.

Flying off to Austria for a fortnight-long trip with Esper this coming Tuesday and will blog more when I return. This is gonna be interesting. heh
