The Short Journey to Bratislava

So recently, I’ve been traveling to nearby places on the weekends. Places in which I would likely not travel across the ocean to see, but are certainly worth seeing while I’m here. Three weekends ago I traveled with some gal pals to Bratislava, Slovakia. This is the booming captial of Slovakia. I think the population is something like 400,000? Decent sized. The cool thing about this town was it’s unique architecture. For example, these army guys’ heads on the top of this random building.

Cool, huh?

It had other cool stuff… fountains….

Luckily, we managed to find our way around the city. Sarah kept her head in the guidebook and Ana was the commander and chief. :)

Look at what this dynamic duo even found!

McKebab!!

Do you realize what a rare find this is? I don’t honestly remember seeing even a McDonalds there in Slovakia, so I can’t imagine that it is so popular that this McD’s knock off would actually entice MORE people to come to it…. or maybe that is why it works here…. :)

One thing we could not be guided correctly to unfortunately…. the train. We got to the train at the right time, unfortunately, it was not the right train.

We looked at the wrong train schedule

So we got to spend another few hours in the lovely city of Bratislava with a dark, Slovakian beer. Was not so bad!
