Austria 2003: Vienna - The beautiful Blue Danube…

"Character is how you treat those who can do nothing for you..."

There is so much more to Vienna than the Blue Danube waltz. Home of Strauss, the Vienna Boys' Choir and magnificent opera, Vienna is a city with music in the air. Enjoy a horse-drawn carriage tour past the Hofburg Palace, Spanish Riding School and magnificent, new Museum Quarter.

Auguries of Innocence

To see a World in a Grain of Sand,
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand,
And Eternity in an hour
'
(William Blake)

(An evening stroll along the Stephanplatz)

I was in Vienna again in May 2006.
