Sacher Torte is THAT good.
I’ve enjoyed my first week in Vienna! I’m exhausted. I forgot how difficult it is to adjust, not knowing the simple things like entrance and exit, days of the week. The weather has been warm and rainy and humid. Thunderstorm last night, light showers today, hot in between.
I’ve been apt/house hunting, learning the neighborhoods. Beautiful buildings everywhere, hidden courtyards and gardens. I see more tomorrow and hope to be in a new place by this weekend.
I’ve also seen a few highlights, went to the top of the Donastrum (Danube Tower) amazing views, beautiful park around it.
Sat outside with a Sacher Torte, Latte and Curly. Starbucks across from me.
Vienna is a big city but feels calm somehow. I wonder if I will feel that way a year from now. Someone said it is because it is holiday time, August. There are many people in the tourist areas but not crowded other places. I went to a film festival event at the Rathaus.
It was so well run, food booths with a wide variety of food and wine and coffee. There is so much beauty here, the buildings and the green spaces.
I will rent a two bedroom, come and share this with me.
