Dann and I don’t often get to cafes when we visit other countries, but as we were being shown around by some friends, they had selected Aida as a place we couldn’t miss! Aida is a sort of Instagram-able cafe that has a few different locations, which some being more set up for Instagram pictures than others. This specific cafe is known for bringing Austria’s first espresso machine into operation, being ahead of the curve when it came to coffee consumption!

Unlike Dog Man: The Card Game, this game is all about rolling dice! Dog Man, if you didn’t know, is a very popular book character, who’s had a number of board games and even a movie. Robin absolutely loves reading Dog Man books, and so we always keep an eye out for board games and card games that match.

In Austria, we had a lot of pastries in well known places. One of these places were Cafe Central – a cafe with a line all the way around the block. We had a local showing us around, so we were able to know when the line wouldn’t be so long, and got there in time for first seating at breakfast! Some of their menu is only available at lunchtime, while other aspects of their menu are specific for breakfast, so it is worth making sure they have the foods you’d like to try when you go. We were very excited to eat here as the pastries looked SO stunning! I do not know the name of any of the cakes we had as we went up to the window and pointed at the ones we wanted to try.

It feels like, with so many rainy days, having some easy, indoor activities is the way to go! Robin had picked out the Crystal Art Keyring Kit Perfect Pets for one of these rainy days which contains three different, pet-themed keychains for her to fill full of gems. Each of the keychains are double-sided, so there are a lot of gems to be placing on!
