another sunset

I don't know if I'll ever get tired of the view from our balcony. Especially as the sun is setting.

Kleines Café

Brian and I haven't visited this cafe, but I think we should make a point of stopping there. This is how Lonely Planet describes it:

Designed by architect Hermann Czech in the 1970s, the Kleines Café exudes a bohemian atmosphere reminiscent of Vienna's heady Jugendstil days. It's tiny inside, but the wonderful summer outdoor seating on Franziskanerplatz is arguably the best in the Innere Stadt.

It sounds like just our kind of place, don't you think?

Fog on the Danube

It's been really foggy here lately -- and not just in the morning. This photo of the Danube River was taken around noon. Here's the same view on a sunny day: New Blue Danube.

On the beaten path

I was hoping for more reds and oranges. Still, it was a nice walk.

Taking a short break

My schedule is a little crazy this week and I think I may be running out of photos. So I'm taking a break. Hopefully we'll be back to regular programming next week, so check back on Monday.

Austrian village

This is a photo of the village from the balcony of the hotel where the retreat was located. It was taken early in the morning as the fog was rising.

Milk princess

Several of the cows where wearing flowers on their head on Monday when they came down from the mountains. One cow had on much larger head gear, but she refused to pose for a photo. Someone told me that she was the milk queen -- the cow that had produced the most milk over the past year. So I thought perhaps this cow was the milk princess.
