Vienna in December

Between Christmas and New Year we visited friends of ours in Austria in a town close to Vienna. Of course we also spent some time in Vienna itself as well!

"Schloss Halbthurn"

The casket on the left is Sissi's...

At the treasury of the "Hofburg"

Coffee called "Einspänner" (strong coffee with wipped cream in a glas, comes with a glass of water)

Decoration of a chocolate store - deer made out of pure chocolate

"Kaiserschmarrn"

The largest and best "Wiener Schnitzel" I've ever eaten...

You need to be lucky to get tickets for the Vienna Opera House - our friend had them ordered several month ahead of time and we went to see the ballet "Nutcracker"! It was quite an experience!

Happy New Year to all of you!!!
