The original front entrance to the palace home.
A side view of one palace wing. You can also see the "privy garden," or private garden, of the estate.
A shaded walkway surrounding the privy garden.
We had fun walking the palace grounds and experiencing the self-guided audio tour of the palace rooms. Unfortunately, pictures weren't allowed inside the building, but we went to town once we got outside!
I wish it was easier to take self-portraits and still get some of the background in the picture!
Joe would have been an awesome palace guard back in the day, don't 'cha think?
...but I obviously would have been the BEST!

For those of you thinking of traveling to Vienna, we would definitely recommend visiting the Schonbrunn! They even have a little zoo, playground, and kids-size maze, so it's family-friendly!
The back side of the palace, facing the palace gardens.
We only had a half-day to see the Schonbrunn, because we also wanted to make it to the Kunsthistorisches Museum before our 1-day vacation was over!
Keep posted (get it?) for pictures from the museum!
