After reading the blog Merisi's Vienna for Beginners (which has the most beautiful photographs, I highly recommend it), I've been somewhat nostalgic about my brief time in Vienna -- which led to again digging into my old Europe pictures and prizing this one out of the mass. I took this on a bright spring morning in Vienna when a friend and I were on our way to the Hofburg Palace to visit the Spanish Riding School. It was an absolutely beautiful morning with the sun shining down from a sky so impossibly blue it looked unreal, like a painted ceiling in an Italian palazzo. All in all that was a wonderful day.

Morning in Vienna
After reading the blog Merisi's Vienna for Beginners (which has the most beautiful photographs, I highly recommend it), I've been somewhat nostalgic about my brief time in Vienna -- which led to again digging into my old Europe pictures and prizing this one out of the mass. I took this on a bright spring morning in Vienna when a friend and I were on our way to the Hofburg Palace to visit the Spanish Riding School. It was an absolutely beautiful morning with the sun shining down from a sky so impossibly blue it looked unreal, like a painted ceiling in an Italian palazzo. All in all that was a wonderful day.
Such a wonderful surprise to find an image of a splendid morning in Vienna here, not to mention my name! Thank you very much, that is very kind of you!
ReplyDeleteI came here to thank you for your comment on my blog. I am looking forward to visiting each other again!
I am going to travel to Rome the day after tomorrow, but after that, towards the end of next week, I shall be back in all Vienna mode on my blog.
