This week started off on the right foot with a solid soccer match... we saw the Wien Rapid cup game! They lost in double overtime but they redeemed themselves with about 9 yellow cards and 2 red cards

This is at the end of the street I live on... it's a park called Tiergarten. It has animals in it... it's known for its wild pigs! Unfortunately there were no pig sightings the day I went.
Sissi, Franz Joseph, and Rudolph... may you rest in pieces (their innards are divided among a few cathedrals)
Our house frau got us tickets to the Vienna Philharmonic rehearsal... Sooo legit. They played Schubert's unfished symphony and Bruckner. Georges Pretre conducted... he's the man!

We ate at this traditional restaurant... it was filled with large parties of locals and they served very traditional cuisine. The best part was that there was a live band consisting of violin, viola, clarinet, and bass and there were dancers in traditional costume and such. There was even audience participation!
Buda....pest

Jewish memorial...they were forced to take off their shoes and were then shot into the water
