Wien

I arrived in Vienna yeterday, and finally, the weather is better. I found a new favorite drink here called Sturm. It has a very German pronounciation. It is sweet wine made from very young grapes. Normally, I do not like sweet wine but some locals convinced me to try it. It is so good. Unfortunately, I cannot bring any back because the stuff only lasts a few weeks even if unopened. There is an endless market here that I checked out today as well. It must have taken a good hour to walk through it. I will definitely be going there for lunch again tomorrow. It is basically a jumbo flea market combined with a jumbo farmers market and is the place to get good struedel. Not sure what is on tap for tonight yet, but I am heading to the hostel bar right now which is very good. All in all, Vienna has exceeded my expectations so far. It is nice to get away from the bad weather and all of those tourists in Prague.
