Summer night in Vienna

*Nick in Vienna

Earlier tonight I went to a free outdoor concert given by the Wiener Philharmoniker at Schoenbrunn. I met up with a couple friends from the English church who had also brought a few people from their school programs. We had a great seat up on the hill behind and above the stage. The view was amazing. The sound, not so much. We could barely hear anything up there. The music was all planet themed, so they played some Star Wars, Holst's Planets, and that sort of thing. I'm sure it was great. It didn't really matter, though. The view was great, the wine was flowing, and the conversation delightful. Here are a few pictures.

  1. Nick, was very impressed by your presentation yesterday and assumed I could easily find your email address but could not. Hope to communicate further about your research (and issues that are germane to us both).
