My six year old's perspective on Austria

Austria: written by: My 6 year old daughter

My cousin's live there that's why I like it. We traveled there before. Most of the houses are yellow. I went to the chocolate factory there. I love it. I like and visited the ice caves and the salt mines.  I like the castles and the mountains there. The mountains have grass hills. The castles were really pretty. We couldn't find them very easily because you don't have like maps or GPS most the time because your walking. I like the gardens in Austria.

The chocolate factory. We walked upstairs and we tasted a bunch of different kinds of chocolate.
We made hot chocolate by ourselves. Yummy!!yummy!!
My favorite chocolate was the white chocolate that we tasted.

The ice caves were cold. There was a bunch of ice. There was stairs that you could walk up and go in the caves. There was big pieces of ice that said stuff on it. There was shiny ice there. We had someone that leaded us to somewhere on our tour. I love Austria!

The salt mines had lots of salt. We had to wear special thingy like uniforms. We rided this little train thingy. We saw big pieces of salt. and then there was little computers things and we could see salt and sugar on those things it made them bigger and smaller when you turned a knob.

Grace's story was very interesting and well done. I think she has her Moms writing talent.
