Hello all,
We arrived in Vienna yesterday afternoon (Thursday). We are at breakfast now at our "pension," a bed and breakfast kind of place very close to the Opera. It's great to be in the middle of everything, although the "apartment" that we rented isn't really an apartment at all, just a collection of rooms that share a bathroom. There is a small fridge and a coffee maker, but that's about it. We had a very interesting picnic in our apartment last night. Oh, well. On the bright side (and, as they taught us in Spamalot, ALWAYS look at the bright side of life . . . ), it is big and right in the middle of everything.
We have already seen (but not visited) one of the public toilets with opera blasting out of it. But, I guess it is not the most famous one. With John with us, I'm sure it won't be long before we find it. John loves checking out the local "facilities." We also think this will be a great place to work on our family travel opera. More on that later.
We are looking forward to an exciting day of exploring. We will try to up-date with photos this evening.
Have a great day and, DON'T watch the news!!!!
Auf Wiedersehen!
Susan

It all sounds adventurous, mostly fun, and familiar. On our sabbatical, we wrote a family opera, too. Ours was Italian, and featured "latte fresca," the subject of a constant quest. Must be a sabbatical grand tour kind of thing...
