Day 2, 31/03/08: (Not) visiting Wien

Although Wien was on my exact track, and in fact i crossed the center of it, there was no time for stops. I had already been there, and hopefully will return. On the trip there was no time to pass by (but not enter) the variety of museus in the Museum Quartier, not seeing the Opera building, no Sissi Palace, no paying a fortune for a ordinary chocolate cake in a supposedely famous pastery (pasteis de nata, now that is something worth waiting). Wien, an imperial city, calm, organized, and with splendidly conserved buildings.
A perfect place for a long weekend to take your girlfriend/wife/mistress, just to enjoy a sophisticated capital and with an abundant cultural life. Not for a guy travelling alone across Europe in a Polski Fiat.
