Ghent: A city that started to grow in the late middle ages, around the two rivers of Leie and Scheldt. It is now the second largest municipality in Belgium, and is the capital of East Flanders, the Flemish speaking part of the country.

Vienna Vol. 2

Last time I was in Vienna I had a stomach bug and spent most of the time sleeping. This was all that made it to the blog: 

"So while I technically did pass through Austria and visited Vienna, I don't really remember it. On the train from Prague I must have caught the tail end of Tyler's food poisoning or something similar ( I feel totally comfortable blaming the hostel for any illness I may have contracted) and spent the first day in bed at the Meininger Hostel (a chain I would recommend) throwing up and generally dead to the world. On the second day we made it to the Natural History Museum, which was pretty groovy. Then we played some pool, drank some cheap Becks - because beer is the traveller's medicine - and were off the Italy the very next day..."

This time around we were there for just under a week, and I was travelling with family. Aka we did real proper stuff 'n' shit. I really felt like I got to see another side of Vienna; a rich cultural heritage, expressed through architectural design, food and music. Between museum visits and stuffing my face with Viennese food, I tried to capture some of Vienna's best bits.  The focus of this post is the images rather than words, as we visited so many different museums and galleries and that describing them would be less interesting than only showing you the highlights. The photos  are divided into visual themes, rather than chronologically. Enjoy!
