Wienerwaltz

So i find myself in Vienna. It's not th first time i've been redirected and stuck here in spite of my original plans. It's like this city has hunted me to come and see it. And it's about time.

When i got called off my plane to Cairo and left in the Vienna airport once again i seriously thought about returning back home in an instant. I've postproned my return there so many times now, and changed my tickets and lost money and spent money and been sick and sick of it all so i wasn't even surprised. I was surprised to spend the night here though. At a lovely hotel by the airport on Egyptair's bill, leaving me time to have a taste of Vienna before my plane leaves (again) this afternoon. I found a coffeplace where they have white linens on the tables and knows how to make coffe (you know what a snob i am when it comes to my coffe). The buildings here are exactly what i love about urban Europe, i can see why americans gets blown away when they visit us now, this is where we inherited our taste for Art Noveau. Actually, this is where we were given it from in most cases.

The egyptians at the gate had allready been on me, trying to trick me into send their lugagage in my name so that they wouldn't have to pay for their own weight. Egyptians; Load your own donkeys! I was pretty bummed and tired, so an additional day in Europe is just what i needed. Note to self; Return here for romntic weekend! Bring camera and money for Erdinger.

Now i better head off to make sure i actually get on that plane.

PS; found vegetarian-vegan-fish place right away, and the coffeplaces all looked cute and elegang so far. I might be in love.
