The Great Adventure has begun... Intrepid Journeys eat your heart out! We arrived in Vienna very tired after a marathon haul from AKL -LAX-LHR-VIE...Premier Economy made it reasonably bearable though we didn't get too much sleep.

Vienna is a great city, albeit very expensive but worth it all the same: It bought out our classical side and on the first night we arrived we went to the opera at the State Oper Theatre! It was great although we did cheat and get standing tickets for €2 each, such a bargain when normally people pay €40 minimum for seated tickets! Inst...
