Busy in Vienna

What a beautiful city! In stark contrast with Prague and Budapest, the European recession is not visible here. The city centre is so majestic and appears almost unreal in it's perfect appearance. Vienna lives and breaths prosperity. There are beautiful buildings on every street of the old city centre, I for one can wander around for hours in it's maze. 

We've been busy, here are some of the places we've been.

Staatsoper - we attended a concert at this historic hall







Kunsthistorisches Museum - Delmer and my favorite art museum, although we haven't visited the Louvre in Paris as yet. Check out the priceless an Egyptian blue hippo. about the size of a guinnea pig. We also saw works from Rembrant, Ruebens, Monet and others.



  
The Belvedere where we viewed Klimp's famous paintings, The Kiss and Judith.






Schloss Schonbrunn
