Hi From Vienna!
It's friday evening. Today I attended a morning workout at the Spanish Riding School , a tour of the stables, and then went through the Lippizan Museum. It is very COOL! (a special THANK YOU to Lynne Bowen for suggesting Vienna / Spanish Riding School part of the trip)
Vienna is Beautiful - weather is About like Seattle is. A NICE change from the blast-furnace of Eilat, Israel.
Tomorrow I have tickets for a performance of the Spanish Riding School then off to the Prater and maybe the Danube tower (and the Danube River) SOOO much to see - definitely will not get to see much of Vienna. Then off to Krakow (Poland) on monday.
Vienna is a clean city and the people seem very nice. The hostel I am staying in is GREAT. It is close to the ring - I walked back from the Hopsburg Castle (where the Spanish Riding School is)
My only regret about Vienna is not having scheduled to spend more time here.
YES - I had a Starbucks today! (and also McDonalds) Starbucks is literally across the ring from the Riding School (across the other street from the Lippiyan Museum)
More from Vienna later.
