    Up at 6, breakfast and on bus at 8. A beautiful drive with surrounding snow capped mountains, villages and greenery. Arrived in city center 12:30. Had a lovely Viennese lunch at Cafe Landtmann. This is where Sigmund Freud would eat and drink coffee. Walked across the street to a lovely Christmas market. Pretty much the same as the others. Met the group at 2 for a walking tour with Gabby. Saw several palaces, rose garden the residence of frans Josef. The office the 33 year old chancellor and the president which reports to the chancellor. Continued our tour on the bus around the city viewing city hall, university etc. arrived at Hotel Ananas 4 pm. Repacked, relaxed and left by 5 to walk to dinner. We found on yelp Ristorante Gondola. The waiter spoke English with a New York accent. Come to find out he lived in San Francisco , Daly City , went to westmoor high school and has family in San Mateo ! Incredible! The food was great. He brought us a limoncello. We had wine, a yummy arugula salad , gnocchi con funghi and tortelloni con prosciutto. We were full. So as we’re sitting there talking away, Cristi says ‘ what time is it? we gotta go! ‘ we got the bill walked back to the hotel to freshen up for our 7:30 pick up for the Mozart concert. The concert was in the Bors Palais,old Stock Exchange building, in the city center. While waiting for the hall to fill with people, Cristi is starting fall asleep. She thought if she put her hands together people will think that she’s praying! LOL!もっと詳しく
