We can see in the slides some illustrations during their visit, in the 3rd slide the Emperor Franz Joseph of Austria talking to the Russian Empress and next to her, Elizabeth the Empress of Austria nicknamed Sisi and Emperor Nicholas II,and the 4rth slide we can see a zoom in of that illustration showing the two Empresses who were considered to be the most beautiful at their times. Actually, Empress Alexandra saw Sisi 9 years ago when she was Princess Alix of Hesse, she was so impressed by her charm character and beauty. “On Saturday we saw the Empress of Austria, and I was perfectly enchanted with her. She has a most lovely, tall & thin figure (50 years old) and such a pretty face & soft voice.” wrote to her brother Prince Ernest of Hesse, 3 August 1887. “How funny it is to hear German spoken everywhere after 2 years in Russia. [...] Nicky drove with the Emperor [of Austria] & I followed with the Empress - I must say I am shy with all these masses of strange faces again. The Empress I had already seen twice before - she enquired after you. - Stephanie [the Dowager Crown Princess of Austria] was directly charming - she must be coming now in a minute - as she wanted to see me a little quietly. [...] At 5 there is an immense Dinner & Cercle (oh dear) & parade, then Pürschen for Nicky. At 4 family dinner at Leinz, then drive & later a Concert here in the Burg. It is such a pitty [sic] that as soon as the Empress does not appear Stephanie neither does, as she would have been such a great help to me.” wrote to her brother Ernest the Duke of Hesse 15/27th of August 1896 #empressalexandrafeodorovna #empresselisabethofaustria #empresssissi #alexandrafeodorovna #royalwomen #elisabethofaustria #history #royals #nicholasii #franzjosef #romanovs #theromanovs #romanovdynasty #romanova_team #otma #sissiofaustria #alixofhesse #sisi #empresselisabeth #romyschneider https://www.instagram.com/p/CbYFvCosMJN/?utm_medium=tumblr

New Zealand South Island Adventure day 7: Wanaka -> Franz Josef - Had farmstay last night. It was scary to drive through the winding gravel way in dark after dinner but the view turns out to be pretty good in the morning. Got back to Wanaka for brunch and then drove through the wild Mt Aspiring National Park to West Coast. Had numerous stops for sightseeing on the way that I can only name a few: Lake Hawea Lookout, Lake Wanaka Lookout, Blue Pools, Thunder Creek Falls, Knights Point Lookout, Bruce Bay Lookout. Arrived at Fox Glacier at 8PM and noticed a local pub was still offering dinner. Decided to get steak to recharge before heading to the final destination Franz Josef feeling lucky it was at least pies, pastry or some cookies. It was only 23KM from Fox Glacier to Franz Josef but it turned out to be the most winding drive in the trip so far. It was good that I was just recharged with steak after a whole day’s long haul drive but then it got dark after dinner. I don’t have time to stay in the glacier country for the hiking and snow landing activities. Hope I can still visit next time. #glaciercountry #foxglacier #franzjosefglacier #franzjosef #westcoast #mtaspiringnationalpark #newzealand #roadtrip (at Franz Josef Glacier, New Zealand) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cppa5VIP8qO/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
