This lovely Spring afternoon was one of my favourite days in Vienna ever. It was early May, and still a little chilly, but the sun had finally emerged, splashing some colour onto buildings and on us pale dwellers of Viennese terrain. Winter in Vienna is really something else - under that seemingly permanent ceiling of grey, I think people just die a little bit for about 4 months, then one day the sun comes out, and people - even the Viennese - come back to life and go out to play.
We gathered at the rooftop of the apartment at Traungasse - otherwise known as the Traun, home to many a night of hooliganism and lovely times with good friends - for the first BBQ of the year.
A little later on, some of us headed around the corner to the Wiener Konzerthaus to hear the soprano Measha Brueggergosman's recital. Beautiful. A perfect ending to a perfect afternoon with great people. (Slash wait, we totally went back to the apartment for a few more hours of wine drinking afterwards...)
Thanks once again, girls of Traun.
