Christmas in Bratislava

Have I mentioned how difficult it is to travel around Christmas? I used to travel on Christmas Eve with my family. On our way to Taos or Palm Springs I remember thinking how it was probably the only night of the year that there was a 45-minute wait at Denny's.




On Christmas we went to Bratislava. It was closed. I don’t think it would been such a disappointment except for the fact that it was really cute. Or at least, I think it was really cute. It appeared to be really cute. The only places that were open to eat served salty fried tourist food for twice the price of real food. The restaurant Lauren suggested was insultingly closed. The weather didn’t cooperate and kept us from going to Devin castle (Hrad), the one castle that Lauren said was worth the trip. Each day presents a new opportunity to begin again and enjoy the adventure of the day. And sometimes it feels as if each day I fail miserably at making the most of it
