Tschüs, Wien!

---

Vienna was beautiful. Phuong and I saw Stephansdom, the Rathaus and the Votivkirche. Stephansdom was very elaborate, very beautiful, with artwork and statues from different periods, including some from the 13th century!
We also went to the Sächer hotel to try the *famous* (at least in Vienna!) Sächertorte, which is a very light, fruity chocolate cake. I bought a small one to take home to my parents!
Yes, taking the train through the country, everything did look quaint and perfect. In the city, it´s still a *city* experience, but it´s fun just the same!

Church candles
A beautiful disply of candles just inside the church. Oddly, they charged for the candles, haha. We didn't buy one.

It's amazing; everywhere we turn, there's something to see.

Phuong manages to take a beautifully detailed picture (in spite of the fact we can't use flash photography).

Becky at Stephansdom
It's awesome up here! The grating we're standing on scares me, though.

Bell at Stephansdom
Near the top of the roof, we walk by a bell.

Stairs at Stephansdom
Here I am climbing down the stairs after seeing the top of the Stephansdom.

Church
Here's another Gothic-style church we saw in Vienna.

Rathaus
Here we are at the city hall in Vienna.

City Gardens
By the city hall, there's a small gardens/park area. It's beautiful, and I think how much my mom would love to see these flowers.

Wombats Hostel
Here's a picture of our hostel bunkbeds before we put on our clean sheets.

This is such a cute, clean hostel.

Yum! I finally got a piece of the famous Sacher Torte at the Sacher hotel.
