Just a little update on what I've been up to lately. A couple weekends ago I went with Amanda to the Musikverein to see the Cleveland Orchestra perform. It was quite fantastical, I must say. Although the standing room space is not as nice as the Opera's (flat area behind a tallish barrier vs. a tiered standing room balcony with posts to lean on), the music hall was GORGEOUS. Just look:
And to top it off the performance was also quite spectacular (look at all this posh language! I feel when one is talking of such well-to-do things as music performances one must talk in such a manner.) When they first started playing I could have sworn it was a recording being played over the speakers. Luckily I did not pay 6 Euro to listen to a recording and it was in fact live.
The next day Bri, Josh, and I (k, from now on I am referring to us as the... trio? triad? troupe? troika? .... THE TRIUMVIRATE!!)
So the Triumvirate went on a jolly good spaziergang (walk) through the Vienna Woods. The leaves are currently changing and the weather was gorgeous that day, so we thought we should do something outdoorsy before the cold really came.
Epic photos ensued:
Also, in more recent days, I ran into a mob, compete with riot police in tow, while on the U-Bahn on my way to Schnitzelwirt. Nothing like mob mentality to boost your appetite.
