Vienna was more of a stopover rather than a trip; we only allocated one full day (next time we'd include a day dedicated to go Salzburg).  We arrived late afternoon and lucky for us our accommodation was located in Vienna central.  Five minutes away was St Stephens Cathedral (yes, more Cathedrals), built 13th century, the cathedral can't be missed as it towers over surrounding buildings.
 
The rest of the sights were very close (central Vienna is fairly small), so we covered off most sights in the one night.  Among the sites were, Stephanplatz (Vienna's main shopping strip), St Peters Church, Hofburg (the Imperial Palace), the University quarter and Volksgarten (park near Hofburg).
 
After dinner, we found a Aussie pub called, Crossfields and we couldn't resist going in.  What did they have on tap?  Fosters and Strongbow.  Among the other drinks offered at the pub was Carlton Cold, XXXX and Bundy Rum and on the menu they had grasshopper and kangaroo burger.
