My last day in Vienna was amazing! Went to the top of St. Stephan's Cathedral Belfry, saw a panorama view of the city, and I got to see Europe's largest free-swinging bell, Die Pommerin. I also got to play on the Bösendorfer Imperial piano, one of the best pianos made. The sales lady told me that it takes one year to produce one piano, and will set me back around 132,000 Euros ($188,000).
Brian and I went to pick up our Vienna Philharmonic tickets. The concert was truly AMAZING! I really don't have words to describe it. I've never heard an orchestra that uses true controlled dynamics. And Boulez conducting was great!
Now, I need to get ready to check out of the hotel, and head on my 12-hour train ride to Rome. Thankfully, it's a direct train to the station. We had to go to the travel agency to book our tickets to Rome and then back to Munich from rome. It cost us $436 for all rides, which isn't too bad considering...
Take care, everyone! I really do need to make another photo album because I've exceeded my photo limit. I don't really sort the photos because that takes more time than I have at the moment. So, you're just stuck with all of them.
Tschüß!
