Viennese Vineyards

After arriving in Vienna on Friday evening I met up with Haji, who I'm staying with while I'm here. It was great to see him and he was very happy to have a friend from home come to visit!

On Saturday he and his girlfriend Amanda took me to the vineyards in the hills on the outskirts of the city. Visiting these vineyards is a common weekend activity for the Viennese - hundreds of tables are laid out for visitors to sit at and enjoy the views, the sun and of course the wine!

In possibly the most civilised twist on a pub crawl ever conceived, the three of us made our way through each of the vineyards starting from the top of the hill and making our way down. It was all very pleasant up until Haji wandered off to go to the toilet and promptly fell asleep, leaving Amanda and me with no idea where he'd gone! Eventually we found him and picked up where we left off with another bottle of wine.Baca lagi
