An Adventure to the Flow House

Saturday, Oktober 11 (I can't get the pictures to load...check back later!)

We woke up Saturday morning and decided that after having wandered around much of the touristy part of Vienna it was time to take a look at Vienna as the Flow House kids see it. So with a map and an address we set out to find what our $50,000 a year pays for. And with incredible success made it there in about 45 minutes and got a tour from the Wake professor whose running the house. It was so fun to see where Becca was living this semester (even if she wasn't there) and even more fun to see a place that means so much to Katie. So naturally, I felt obliged to take about a gazillions pictures of the place!

Afterward we headed back to the central part of the city and went inside Stephansdom which was gorgeous. We then had another picnic lunch of brie and bread and watched a man on a portable couch tape a dissertation about legalizing Heroine onto the ground in the middle of the square. and then we watched 5 guys breakdance for awhile. it was awesome!

We took a stroll down the Graben, peeked into another church, and ate some ice cream before we went and hung out at the Hofburg and then later went and took pictures at the Schloss Belvedere. The weather was beautiful and we had a WONDERFUL afternoon just wandering aimlessly through the city.

We spent some time on the internet when we got to the hotel and met Ryan for a super late dinner at a bar called 1516. We left just before 1am thinking we could make it the U-bahn before it closed but were too late and had a very interesting time trying to find our way back using the night bus...
