One of the most popular places to hang in my hood (Vienna's 5th District of Margareten) is the…read moreBlockfabrik. This is a large boulder hall with lots of places to climb from easy to hard. You can do it one time or get a membership plan if you intend to go more often. And there's a nice chill cafe for eating and drinking - even if you are not going to climb. (I do def recommend drinking after climbing rather than before.) The Blockfabrik is so popular - especially late-afternoons and evenings - that I can guarantee you there will always be a lot of people 'hanging out' with you .... hanging both literally and figuratively!!

In the course of a conversation on the phone she simply hangs up the phone and no longer picks up. it really is an indictment of poverty. no competeneces available.

My wife and I attended Joey Robinson's class and both came away saying it was the best class in…read morerecent memory. We don't know Joey. We're both researchers from Boston (neuroscience and public health) who dip in and out of teaching yoga ourselves. Our apt in Vienna is too small to do a practice so we find the most convenient class when we're here. Usually we're barely able to tolerate the egoism, false wisdom, and effervescent banality of most yoga teachers (here or Boston or anywhere really). Joey was different. I appreciated his ability to take care of everyone in the room, from beginners to fellow instructors. That day I needed to let out some pent-up energy. He worked in challenging poses even though this doesn't seem to be what he was necessarily intending at the start of class. He was skilled at spontaneously setting a table at which everyone could eat. Good flow, good alignment, focus on breath, kept people light and engaged. People seem to know all this already as the class was full. I never write these but it's so rare to find a good yoga instructor out there that I felt it was necessary.

It was an age of extraordinary wealth and power concentrated in the hands of a few. It is a palace…read moreof opulence and wealth on a grand scale.The Austrian-Hungarian Empire reigned at it's height and today it is reflected in the museum's collections in the Hofburg Imperial Palace. There are numerous museums including the Albertina showcasing Durer, Raphael, Rembrandt, Picasso, Klmt and others. The Augustinekirche (14th century Gothic), Schatzkammer Imperial Treasury, Lipizzaner riding school, Globenmuseum of cartography and the Nationalbibliotek and others. I'm reviewing the tour of the Imperial apartments, Imperial Silver Collection and the Sisi Museum which are in the Hofburg Palace and included in a one ticket price for Adults of 12.50 Euro. This tour comes with a free audio-guide in 13 different languages. I highly recommend the audio-guide which gives detail and perspective you would miss on a self tour. Admission with a guide is another option and costs 15.50 Euros and lasts about 55 minutes. There are other neighboring museum combinations with the Hofburg Palace Tour you might be interested in which include the Art/History Museum and the Schonbrunn Palace. The Imperial Apartments feature Franz Joseph & wife Elizabeth's private quarters, the Audience Hall of great magnificence, conference room for ministers and crown council, living room and bedroom of Elizabeth which are on the scale of the Hermitage and Versailles. The Rococo style, Bohemian crystal chandeliers and 17th/18th century tapestries augment the numerous salons. The furniture is 19th century Louis XV and Empire style. The Sisi Museum has numerous personal items owned by Elizabeth as well as famous portraits of Elizabeth. Her Hungarian Coronation dress is a highlight as is the black coat with egret feathers which she was laid out in after the assassination.. The Silver Collection holds 7,000 coins. It also includes the Vienna Court Silver Service and the "Grand Vermeil Service" which was a service for up to 140 people. The Milan Centerpiece is also a highlight. Interesting little nuances include the dinner menu. Anyone for veal lips or liver dumplings. The tour is accessible to the disabled with ramps, elevators, free wheel chairs and free entrance to aids for blind visitors. Seeing-eye dogs are also allowed. I attended a Mozart Concert in the Hofburg Palace which I enjoyed but others may not appreciate.
