A Nerd's Love Letter to Vienna


Are you the kind of person who would DVR a History Channel special while you went to the theater? Then Vienna is your candy store, my friend.

Cultural offerings abound at all price points (12-euro opera tickets, anyone?). There are more museums and churches and historical sites than you could possibly shake a stick at. So many, in fact, that even with a full week in Vienna, I will not end up seeing everything I wanted to. This realization followed me in a cloud of remorse yesterday. Until, gradually, it dawned on me that will never be enough time. Vienna is like Paris: you can only measure your experience in amount of time spent, not in number of sights seen. So, one week down. More to come.
