Europe Part IV: Montenegro, Czech and Copenhagen

From Paris we flew to Montenegro. You may know that Steph's parents live in Montenegro doing mission work. We visited them during their first stay a few years ago and they've just moved back for another stint. We stayed nearly a week with them but didn't take much pictures, except for our day trip to Kotor, which is the most famous tourist destination in Montenegro with cruise ships even coming into the port city.

Somewhere near Kotor, can't remember where

Same

Steph with her parents

Old town Kotor with the ruins behind on the mountain

That island is Sveti Stefan - an uber fancy resort where Novak Djokovic recently got married

Sunset on the way back to Bar

From Montenegro we flew to Vienna, where we spent a few hours before hopping on a train for Cesky Krumlov in the Czech Republic.

Cesky Krumlov - a really cool medieval city

The castle in Cesky Krumlov

It's protected by bears in a moat!
We took a long walk out into the countryside
From Cesky Krumlov we took a fancy bus all the way to Prague.

Some old church in Prague

the Charles Bridge in Prague

Some famous spot on the bridge that you're supposed to rub for good luck or something

Old town Prague

Really crazy clock

We spent one afternoon doing an "escape room" - we made it out!
On our way back to the States we had a few hour layover in Copenhagen.

The Little Mermaid statue. For some reason this is very famous

Probably my favorite church we went to in all of Europe...

The inside had this amazing huge dome

Copenhagen was cool but crazy expensive. All I could afford was a hot dog!
And that's it for Europe. We headed back home for a few days before starting our journey back to New Zealand.
