I have seen many different styles of teaching and classroom environments, but I am sure most of my readers would much prefer to hear about all the exciting places I have visited while in Vienna :)
So here is my list:
St Stephan's Cathedral
Hapsburg Winter Palace
Hapsburg Summer Palace
Many different Christmas Markets
Shopping street on MariahilferStrass
Mozart's apartment
Musikverein (where they have the new years eve concert every year)
The Imperial Tombs
A coffee house with Sister Sharon
and maybe some other places that I am forgetting... This is why I should blog every day, then I wouldn't forget ;)
I have plans to go to:
Belvedere
The Spanish Riding school
Ice skating
and out to the country to visit my mentor teachers house
Last night I went to the Musikverein and heard music by Fabio Luisi, Strauss, Liszt and Brahm. I feel very cultured after having gone there :) The place was beautiful! Our seats were right over the violin players and it was so exciting to watch the passion on their faces as they were playing. You could tell which part of the music was their favorite by watching their facial expressions. You could also tell when the performance was getting ready to end as each person gave what seemed like a "this is it!" smile to the person next to them.
Next week I will have a few days to do some touring of Vienna, so if there are any places I have not seem yet, that are a must see before I leave, please let me know!!
