As if we didn't pack in enough culture in one day... We decided to take in the Mozart Requieum performance. The night in Vienna comes alive around 8:00 as there are concerts and performances around every corner. We were a little worried as it started at 8:15 pm and we can be rather early birds especially after walking town all day. but one good shot of espresso and we were good to go. Before the concert we followed Rick Steves suggestion and hit a great restaurant... Traditional and contemporary Austrian food. Don had a grilled chicken salad and I had a yummy pumpkin risotto. Pumpkin is really big here now.
The town was really bustling as some of the major "rings" we're closed for the refugee concert. Lots of honking horns!
The concert was beautiful with 20 piece orchstra and about 20 member choir. Wish we knew more about the piece before we went. It was a delightful way to finish a delightful day.
