What can I say about such a historic town?
Horse drawn carriage is probably the best way to enjoy Vienna
It's definitely the best seat for taking in the views: I love looking at the all the old buildings and the rich details of plasterwork and ironwork ....and all without a moments thought for traffic. Bliss!
Here I am really enjoying the view (and some gentle sun)
I love the historic statues
the hotdog stands
the view of the streetscape
the ironwork... just looking at this gate got to me thinking about Sunshine & Shadow, my stencil quilt which was designed around traditional iron scrollwork motifs. I love it!
and more ironwork in windows
Of course once around wasn't enough to take in a city as beautiful as this,
I had to go around again just to appreciate things from the opposite view
and changed seats with my DH who was sitting opposite.
So much motivation for one morning, the only thing missing
was a stop inside a quilting shop for some fabric to go with my fresh ideas.
Luckily, I didn't find one!
The trip looks wonderful I love the atmosphere so much.
