A few photos from Vienna

Seeing Europe in a different light each summer is a real treat. There is something to say about getting old - it becomes Europe!!!! An old map of Vienna was my guide to tour cafeshops in this low profile capital, a tour worth taking. Not much has changed since early last century, same decor, sometimes same menus. A classic! In the hot summer months, remember, only Cafe Central has AC.

This trip should begin in a small quiet cocktail bar, Castillo Vienna, to be exact. Some Buffalo Sweats and Mojitos later - plane to Barcelona, Catalunya, Spain. A few words about Barcelona: awesome architecture, huge squares, roads and places...just stunning. Sculputures of Joan Miró, …

I arrive in Vienna very early in the morning and once the sun comes up I head out on foot to explore the town.  I have great memories of exploring this great city back in 2006 so I’m excited to be back here with my guitar and camera.   Vienna is intriguing to me because I know that it…

I think this is the route my friends and I will be taking this summer. Traveling with kcusa76(Casey), gmmccorm(Gregg), and Pelayo.

Today we are trying to see more sites in Vienna and trying to drive to Prague. We anticipated the drive to Prague to be about 5 hours. So, in order to get there at a reasonable time, we wanted to leave Vienna no later than 1 o'clock. Half of the people on the trip were still adjusting to Europea…

We took a night train from Venice to Vienna and after a not too comfortable but not too bad night in a seated accommodation car arrived at Wien Westbahnhof to be met by Mom's wonderful friend with a bunch of fragrant hot bread in one hand and her little sweet daughter in another. She drove us t…

A 4 day trip to beautiful Vienna with a beautiful friend Marte.

Although we were familiar with this event from TV coverage, the experience far exceeded our expectations. We booked a limo for transfer from our hotel to the Musikvieren the day before and arrived at the concert hall at around 10.30 for the start at 11.15. Just taking in the scene outside was amazi…

We arrived in Vienna around 9 in the morning (by night train) and worked our way to our pension.  I was so organized with everything we needed, except somehow I forgot the directions to the pension.  Fortunately it wasn't hard to find!  Since we arrived in the south train station, it…

Last night we had an evening concert in Vienna that was one of the highlights of the whole cruise.  Imagine champagne on a terrace overlooking Vienna and then beautiful classical music by a chamber orchestra, opera singers and 4 ballet dancers performing just for your small group (this was…

So today was our last day in Vienna. Tonight we were flying to Athens but our flight didn't leave until 11:30pm. We had to check out of our hostel at 11am so we did and we put our bags into the storage and then we had the breakfast that they offer. We had the rest of the day to kill so we went back…
