Bratislava for the day!

When a round-trip train ticket is only 16 euro ($17.60 US), it kinda feels like you HAVE to visit a neighboring country, right? So off to Bratislava, Slovakia we went! The bit we saw, it reminded us a lot of Budapest with the communist history and culture. Definitely worth the hour train ride. See pictures of our adventure below!

Round-trip ticket plus free public transportation in Bratislava for the day.

And this one made me giggle not just because of Jim's expression, but because it looks like Jim has some pretty fancy nails 😂

Jim humoring me and my picture taking obsession 😁😁

And my obsession with manholes in foreign cities lol

And…my obsession with ice cream (or gelato). I really did find a good guy, didn't I. (Although…I'm not so sure Jim has a very hard time “putting up with” that obsession!) The salted caramel ice cream was probably the best I've tried. 🤤
