  4. Sweet Harley with the saddlebags. That's a bike with an understanding of aesthetic.

  5. Cappucino, apple cake, and Romi Schneider - that's a winning combination.

  7. Hooray for your *very* well-deserved Blog of Note! Herzlichen Glückwunsch! :)

    I love the advertisements, especially the woman who looks like she's laying on top of the recycling containers. ^_^

  13. I´ve now scrolled the first page locking at your photos with lovely light, focus and colors. Some of them are making me a bit confused though, a little dizzy even. I´m not sure I´d like to call some of them bad compositions, since I don´t know you, but I want to tell you that I got a little bord after all these coffecups of some kind with a centerpiece in line in the background. I relly like some of the comments, I really like some of the interiors and a lot of the other motifs and since I´ve never been to Austria and then off course not to Vienna, I like the opportunity to experience a litte bit of the world through your cameralens. I will definitively be back. Thank you for sharing and have a nice day!

  14. Congratulations on your blog of note! I have never been to Vienna, only Graz, although it is hugely romanticised in my mind by the Viennese writer Eva Ibbotson, who is very dear to me. Each line of her books is beloved. Have you heard of her? Read her?
    Thankyou for sharing Vienna with us.

  18. I'm very happy for you for the Blogs Of Note your blog received.

    Just curious. What does 3/4 Takt mean?

  19. Thanks for the photo of melange! What a strange coincidence. This morning, I was drinking a cup of typical American coffee, and said longingly to my partner how much I missed melange. (I spent 4 months in
    Vienna a couple of years ago.) Glad Blogs of Note called my attention to your blog. I'll check back often.
