In our ungoing effort so see as much dead marble as we can we took a trip (short) to Schönnbrunn Castle. We were admitted to 23 of the 144 rooms which we agreed was enough. We did get to see the room in which Motzart played his first concert at age six and then leaped in the Empress' lap and smothered her with kisses. The Empress response was not recorded. We also got to see where Franz Joseph pooped, which reminds me.....dogs go everywhere in Vienna; restraunts, hotels, subways, etc., which I thought was nice until I saw one in the train station with diarrhea......
The day began with snow but the eventually the sun appeared. The wind keeps the air clear and reminds me of South Dakota. The dollar doesn't go as far as it used to but then neither do we! Tomorrow we head back to Budapest.
