The Cruise, Day Six: Vienna
We have been steeped in Hapsburgs! Spent a long time at the Imperial Palace - which covers ten blocks (Maria Theresa needed a lot of room for those 16 kids!) and now houses government offices, museums, symphony and opera venues, a Piltzner (?) horse training arena, the national library (pictured here - it was amazing and I could have spent hours there!) as well as apartments for the well-connected! Vienna is a beautiful city, and I only wish I had time to explore it more in depth... The evening ends with more music (of course!) and tomorrow we will be once again cruising up the Danube...
