Grazie senore, no wait it's danke. I'm confused. So, when we entered our first restaurant in this beautiful, bustling city called Vienna we expected Germanesque fare and we were greeted with "bouna sera senore i seƱora". It was awesome! I have to admit...all those hours of late night italian lessons on my iPad really have paid off. I understood much of what was said to me in Italy, was able to string together simple sentences, and was able to ask for a table for two by the window and two cappuccinos per favore. I even learned my first curse word in Italian. It is so bad I can't even repeat it here! I learned it one evening as Gary and I were enjoying an evening glass of wine , al fresco, and watched as a drama unfolded before us for our viewing pleasure. A young woman, on the phone, obviously angry with her young man. It was awesome to witness. Passion in its extreme. The Italians are passionate about everything. Their food, their families, their jobs...all of it. Bellisima! I digress...back to Vienna. It's danke, here. What an impressive town. Let me show you.

The Stephansdom.
Hofburg Palace.
Hot mulled wine, my new best friend.
Shopping Mecca. Amazing!
Love the fashion in this city and the crazy "hair" styles.
That's all for now. Ciao babies.
