Since the first truly sunny day was forecast for today, there was no stopping us. The only question was, where could we get the most sun? We chose Danube Island. Given the strong wind, we decided to walk against it first, so we'd have a tailwind on the way back. That worked out perfectly. It was so warm

Since it was gray and dreary again this morning, we decided to visit the MAK. The MAK – Museum of Applied Arts – represents an extraordinary fusion of applied arts, design, architecture, and contemporary art. The building alone is worth a visit. The reddish-brown brick building impresses with its balanced

Today, we had a pleasant get-together with friends despite the unpleasant wind. But when you're engrossed in conversation, you hardly care about the weather.

After culture, culinary delights are a must. We first went to the Naschmarkt. Some shops there are likely closed

Since today's weather forecast predicted another dreary, gray day, we decided to visit some museums. Our first stop was the Sigmund Freud Museum. Visitors are allowed not only to see Freud's private rooms but also his consulting room. You learn quite a bit about Freud's private life and the history of

We wanted to make the most of the morning before the predicted rain arrived. It was a dreary, overcast day, and the wind was very unpleasant. The rain came earlier than forecast, so we cut our planned hike short.

When the snowfall stopped, we decided to check on things at the ZFH (Central Bird Park). It was -3 degrees Celsius, but the strong wind made it feel colder. Snow and sunshine at the same time are very rare in Vienna. We visited our friends. Unfortunately, I was too slow with my gloves on. But everything

Today it's gray again, but still pleasantly warm at 8 degrees Celsius. We used the morning to visit our friends and check on things at the ZFH (a local community center). We found the first winter aconite blossoms. The birds are active again. The squirrels were playing tag. Our friends were very active
