Arcotel Hotel Wimberger Vienna

... thwarted: it was rainy, cold, and the building was absolutely nuts. So we settled for a few sketches and a warming meal at the building’s café. Afterwards, we went to St. Stephen’s cathedral, which was gorgeous, but like about 37% of Europe, it had scaffolding up. However, that trip was salvaged by Zanoni + Zanoni, which had been recommended to me as the best gelato in Vienna. Getting 4 different flavors for 2,70 Euro ...

... into Vienna and buy a 24 hour pass that is good on all busses, metros, trams and return to here. <br><br>We being at Saint Stephan's Cathedral. This Cathedral has a Romanesque origin. Its construction began in the 12th century during the reign of Ottokar II of Bohemia. The church was completely reconstructed in Gothic Style following the orders of Duke Rudolph IV of Habsburg. This Cathedral is dedicated to the first martyr of Christendom ...

... café dan afgesproken.. Jenseits vonden we een beetje tegenvallen. De sfeer is wel briljant, met oude tapijten aan de muur en lelijke meubels, maar het was op de dansvloer een beetje een sardientjesblikje. Gelukkig konden we leuk zitten in de achterkamer, waar we de eer hadden om Günter´s broer te ontmoeten. Echt grappig, zn broer lijkt op een illegale Poolse seizoensarbeider (niet tegen m zeggen, hij is wel heel lief!)<br><br>Zondag ben ik braaf geweest. Ik had om ...

Here at MUDEC, we are required to take two classes which have a traveling component. Our first class trip was this past week with our mini-field study course. My course is called the History of Western Music, and our field tour was to the beautiful city of Vienna, Austria. We left from the Chateau on Wednesday afternoon and took a 3 hour bus ride to Cologne, Germany. In Cologne, we then boarded a plane and flew into Vienna. Once in Vienna, we checked ...

One of the advantages of traveling alone is flexibility. If you want or need to change your plans you can do so without worrying about how it will affect others. That's what I've been doing in Vienna. As a result, I have lots of reasons to come back another time. My original plan called for renting a car and visiting some castles in Burgenland on day trips from Vienna. When I communicated with Frau Walkner, she pointed out the difficulty in finding parking in Vienna and ...

... I couldn't tell if the girl was being overly helpful, or if she was talking to me like an idiot because I was an American. As I would find out later, this is just a byproduct of that Germanic culture that keeps the rooms clean and trains on time. The bar was called Mabel's No.90 and they had great house beer. We enjoyed the atmosphere and the English speaking staff. After a pint each we made our way back to the hostel, and into our feathery beds for some comfy sleep. Day 43- Our first ...

Popped into Vienna for a quick stop-over and a look around. The promised "cheap" 4 star hotel will booked online turned out to be a cheap 2-star, but it was a inexpensive bed, so not complaining. The commode, however, was an inspired anti-design. I can get the Japanese/American "let's fill the bowl right up with water, so you can see everything floating around there". I understand the Spanish/Italian "squat and blow ...

So. just to clear something up... i know i said we were going to "WIEN" in Austria... but that is the name of Vienna in German. Just so you know... So we got to Austria (Vienna.... obviously) at around 17:30, and our train to Krakow, Poland didnt leave until 20:33, so, we decided to take a quick mosey around the train station, and grab a bite to eat. We got these really good chicken sandwiches for a french cafe thing ( in know... we should have eaten ...

... she's Kaserin (Empress) Elizabeth of Austria. She looks beautiful too. I've stopped hunting for tourist sites and more of people watching. Can't find a nice place to sit and sipViennese coffe because it's crowded. Had more gelato on the move instead.

... edge of the cliff. The view was spectacular and it wasn't too cold either. For lunch, Marissa and I both ordered the Austrian-style macaroni and cheese. It was TO DIE FOR. They brought it out in a cast-iron skillet, and it wasn't really made with macaroni noodles, but with small, oddly shaped pieces of dough. The cheese tasted like various kinds of white cheeses, all exceptionally delicious. The fuller I got, the more ...
