today, you thanked God for seeing you through the 10 years of marriage to this man.
you are enjoying yourselves in the capital of east empire - vienna.
as usual, unless you are going really south, everywhere else is autumn in europe. you are blessed with a lovely day, autumn sun and pleasant temperature.

you take you time in the morning and went to schloss schönbrunn. a summer palace for the habsburg monarchy, just at the edge of the city. you really enjoyed the visit, the stories told and the massive garden.

you enjoyed your lunch at the cafe residenz and the authentic imperial apple-strudel. and the sun shone fully in the afternoon that the garden becomes so beautiful.

decidedly you had enough of austrian cuisine, you both opt for japanese dinner to commemorate your anniversary. 

 you walk along the ringstrasse, passed by the state opera house
and you arrived at grand hotel where unkai is located on the 7th floor.
  

you came to the restaurant without booking, little did you expect it to be fully booked on thursday night. you were almost turned away but when you explained it's your wedding anniversary, you're accepted. they made revert effort to accommodate you both.

 your set dinner consists of sashimi, a sort of bento set and a dessert of black sesame crème brûlée 

his sashimi set and a surprise dessert on the house.

yeah, time flies... it's been ten years. it's certainly not a bed of roses but you know it's God who has see you through and the journey is going to be better when both of you focus on Him as the center of your marriage and everything.

cheers for the tenth, and many more years to come!
