Daddy thought riding the ferris wheel at the Prater with mommy would be romantic, silly daddy. Later that night, while walking back to the hotel, daddy slipped and fell hard with me in his arms.
Daddy took one for the team but his cat-like reflexes saved me from a face plant into the sidewalk. After regaining consciousness, daddy looked back to see what made him slip...it was a banana peel! The 3 Stooges were unavailable for comment.

Mommy, I can't see out from down here!!

Mommy and daddy are big fans of the movie, Before Sunrise (1994), and daddy loves the movie, The Third Man (1949). What do both of the movies have in common? Both include scenes shot on the reisenrad (ferris wheel) in Vienna.

We woke up Sunday morning to...SNOW!!!

Waiting for the S-Bahn to take us to back to the train station.

We had some time to kill before boarding the train back to Prague so we walked across the street to the Belvedere again. It looked so different under a blanket of fresh snow.

A pre-snowball-to-the-back-of-the-head look back.

Vanessa flew in from her new home in Zurich, Switzerland to see us. Sadly, she was unimpressed with the astronomical clock in old town square.

Mommy took MeeMaw to see all the greatest sites in Prague, including Europe's biggest ball of yarn and this statue from artist, David Cerny (pronounced Chair-knee).

The world-famous hall of mirrors. Love the hat.

What's that face for?

Oh.

Pillow fight! Laurence and Vinson played around on the bed while mommy and Valerie cooked the Thanksgiving turkey. Maybe one day we'll remember to turn the lights on before recording video. In the meantime, think of it as art.

Valerie ran out of cooking space and asked if she could use our oven to cook the Thanksgiving turkey. We agreed on one condition: that Laurence and daddy got to keep the wishbone. Valerie strapped the turkey (covered in plastic of course) down to Vinson's stroller for a relaxing ride home.

Here we are at Dan and Valerie's Thanksgiving party enjoying what appears to be daddy's fifth helping. Daddy is a huge turkey junkie.

The busiest shopping day of the year wouldn't be complete without a Christmas tree. The girls are standing in front of Prague's newest, and swankiest, mall called Paladium.

Merry Christmas, Season's Greetings, Happy Hanukkah, and Kwanzaa too! The restaurant behind us stole the red bow from a Lexus parked nearby.

"Happy Birthday!"

Back home from our adventures in shopping it was time to put up the tree. We found this one in a beautiful plastic tree forest called, Tesco.

But why can't I put the bulb in my mouth, mommy? Don't I get to do whatever I want?

Christmas tree lights sometimes have an hypnotic effect on young children:)

And mommies too.
