Had to make one last stop at Stephensplatz. Sadly the cathedral was closed due to a music event, so couldn’t make one final visit inside.
Guess we’ll just have to come back.

Requiem at Karlskirche
Going to Karlskirche to see a performance of Mozart’s Requiem played on period instruments. Here are some quick shots.
The rather impressive cathedral. Incidentally the first cathedral we encountered when we arrived, so it holds a special place in our hearts.
The high alter of Karlskirche, in front of which the orchestra and vocalists will perform.
The view straight up into the dome above us. (being renovated)
After the concert I took a couple more pictures. Sadly Requiem does not call for usage of the organ.
Sitting in a kirche… KARLSkirche

Josh forgets to post the pictures that have us in them sometimes.
Morning food
Image
Bread with huge salt crumbs, cucumber, brie, and coffee.
And off to see royal jewels!
Starting will be happening
Image
Countdown to liftoff! Or, in this case, rock music.
Is it me or does Josh look a bit confused?
Lights, camera, action!
Image
A rock music festival seems pretty much the same wherever you are.
Although this one had SIGNIFICANTLY more smoking and shouting drunk people than the last one I was at.
Vienna vacation is for a week, lung cancer is forever. Ah, souvenirs.
the time is almost!

Music Schmusic

On our way to see a band about ink and a band about thinking a lot (presumably at least)
(I was just informed that the band names are in fact Incubus and Muse)
The Colossus of Kebap

Otherwise called D?ner, or “lamb gyro” back home…
Is it a Kebap, Kebab, or a Gyro? It’s all three!

We travel halfway around the world and end up at a food truck enjoying a lamb sandwich with sauce on.
But hey, it’s a delicious sandwich!
