In August 2006 I visited Vienna for 5 wonderful summer days. Parts of our stay were dedicated to the colleagues as Vienna was the destination for our annual company trip. However, before and after the bunch of them arrived we had quite some time to explore Vienna on our own.
We saw a lot during our time here, we explored the major sights (mostly from the outside though), went to Schönbrunn and a Heurigen "wine garden", had quite a few Schnitzels, cakes and other specialties and we really had a lot of fun there. Thanks to my colleague Sylvia, our local guide, we even learned a lot of important and not so important facts about the city. |
While I was there I insisted on not putting Vienna into my top ten cities list. I enjoyed the atmosphere of the city but I wasn't too sure if this was enough. Now after returning home and putting together this page I am not so sure about this anymore... Vienna might actually be in the top ten now! |
Hope you'll enjoy reading about my time in Vienna, about a royal birthday party and how I almost ended up in prison because of a small "Pfiff", about Paradeisers and our quest for the best cake in Vienna....

LKM1018 Fri Jun 13, 2008 11:06 UTC Hi Sabsi! Thanks for the great pics and tips. I wanted to visit Vienna for the opera but after seeing the cake...I must have a slice of Mozart as well!!! | mutchmac Wed Mar 5, 2008 03:54 UTC It is quiet in the mornings but in the afternoon/evening it is a great place to meet friends and people watch. It would be nice to see some sand sculpture at the beach! | Maurizioago Fri Jul 13, 2007 08:10 UTC Nice page! I have to go to Vienna one day.
