Day Nine - Bratislava, Slovakia

All over town, cherry trees and lilacs were in full bloom. It was a lovely warm spring day scented with all of the blossoms.
It was such a beautiful day that we even saw a bit of the US ... the Ambassador's residence! The locals say he is never homesick because he lives in "The White House".
The locals call this bridge "The UFO Bridge" due to it's unique architecture. The top is a revolving restaurant.
All over Europe, we saw lots of alternative energy and adverts for "green" living.
During our walkng tour, we saw this compass embedded in the street.
The town is full of medieval streets - narrow passageways with arches that support the buildings.
Despite the beautiful old buildings, Bratislava is a modern city.
