Miramare Castle






















On Memorial Day, we decided to take a day trip to Trieste and visit Miramare Castle. It was a perfect day to be outside since it wasn't too hot. The castle isn't very big itself, but it's surrounded by a huge park that we enjoyed wandering through. Here are a few picturess from the day.


Part of the extensive gardens. We had I and A choose which path (since there are several that wind and cross all throughout the park) we would follow until we got to the other side of the park and realized we needed to use the map to find our way back.
As you can see, the castle is built right on the edge of the water. It's a lot farther of a drop than it looks in the picture.

K got tired of being in the stroller after a while.

Okay...you totally take the cake. While we are going to duck ponds and nature hikes you are visiting castles, cathedrals, and marble mountains! You rock! Still so jealous of you. Please...tell me something horrible about where you live so I'll feel better about myself.:)
P.S. Your boys are seriously SO beautiful...you are going to have a couple of little heartbreakers on your hands!
