Friday! When I went to bed, we had nothing planned. When I woke up we had a full agenda! Another cousin came to visit and spend the day with us. We set our for the Esterhazy Palace in Fertod, Hungary.
I visited this palace once before, many, many years ago. It was in bad condition. Hungary did not have the money to restore its former beauty. They have since received money from the European Union and it is quite beautiful inside and outside. I’ll let the pictures do the talking.
After our visit to the palace, it was time for lunch. Back into Austria, to Pamhagen, to Schnitzwirt. We had delicious Wiener Schnitzel for lunch.
It was a beautiful day, o w rove to Podersdorf to walk down to the lake and enjoy the beautiful scenery. It was a bit windy too, and as a result, there were several windsurfers out on the lake.
In Austria, you drink a cappucino in the afternoon. In the nearby town of Gols, there was a delightful bakery with sweet treats and coffee.
Our final stop of the day was in Halbturn to see the palace there. When it was first built it was intended to be a hunting lodge!
Birthday treats in the evening to celebrate Ilse’s birthday.
