Schonbrunn Palace

K: 
Today we went and saw Schonbrunn Palace. It used to be the summer home of the Habsburg monarchy. It was incredible. The grounds are huge and so beautiful. They have fountains and statues and flowers and bushes everywhere. It's just starting to look like fall outside so the leaves of the trees were beautiful. It looks like fall, but it felt like summer. It was so so hot out today. The sun was shinning bright and it was a beautiful day.
Then we went inside and it was even greater. I wish I could have take pictures because it was my favourite building we've seen in Vienna so far. the decorating was super elaborate, but so beautiful. I bought a postcard at the gift shop because I couldn't take pictures and I loved this room so much. If I had a scanner then I would show you the exact one I bought, but here is another picture of the same room.
I wish I lived back then (with lots of money). They did so much with their money and justified just about anything they wanted. It was pretty crazy.
