In honor of Austria´s musical claim-to-fame, "The Sound of Music," I will give you a few of my favorite things about Vienna...
1. Seeing a Vermeer at the Art-Historical Museum. There is just something about his paintings that grab my attention with such wonder.
2. Aida Cafes... Cute chain in Vienna that started in the 50s, thus its interior features lots of baby pink color and retro-diner furniture. Plus they have real good torte.
3. Riding bikes for 1 Euro around the city... Did that yesterday and had a ball.
4. Falafel stands by the bus/tram stops... Mmm. Yogurt, onion, falafel. And only 2.90 Euro. Can´t beat that when one is on a budget.
5. Old German movies. I saw one the other day at this run down little theatre. It was so old fashioned-- the plot involved a dashing opera singer who switches identities with a wise-cracking sidekick character, and falls in love with a "modern" gal in the process.
Taking the night train to Berlin tonight... That is sure to be an experience.
