More Vienna

Saturday we went to another fabulous museum (and had lunch there too at a very chic place where all the ladies who lunch lunch).  Then went to the OLD church where all the Hapsburg royalty are buried.  It was really interesting, a little creepy, but very interesting.  Their tombs are these incredibly ornate copper things.  All very gloomy.  It would be a great place for a Halloween party!

 

Then we did some shopping, and then at night went to a Strauss and Mozart concert in an old Gothic concert hall.  It included opera arias and duets, ballet, and orchestral music.  It was beautiful, all very familiar music.  You could choose from several musical events every night here and never do the same thing twice.  It is my kind of place!

 

Afterwards, the only place we could find for dinner that was open so late was a Mexican restaurant.  It actually was very good.  Wonderful strawberry margaritas - the best I´ve ever had in Vienna!!! :)  Plus the usual American Mexican food, which was really good too.  Kind of funny to be eating that here.  On the menu, it was the Mexican descriptions of the food that we understood, since they were in Spanish, and German.  The Spanish descriptions were the same as in the US!!

 

We also went to another wonderful coffee house for coffee and pastries  (yawn!).
