the wizard....the wonderful wizard of ....
Welll....the odyssey has begun in earnest! Bibi and I finally met up in the departure lounge in Frankfurt—and you, David, will be happy to hear that your mom explored the lounge. The Frankfurt airport is scarily large with more signs for designer clothing than departure lounges, and just masses of people going where? Confusion reigns, and I began to appreciate the relative "order" of the Toronto airport....can't wait to hit a really busy airport like New Delhi at Commonwealth Games time! Flight was great, the cabin crew in red stockings (whatever were the Viennese thinking?) served a super meal in a flight that only lasted an hour, and arrival in Vienna uneventful...we took a city train in to town, then a taxi, and apart from the fact that Bibi wanted to adopt the taxi driver (they speak so cute), we arrived here at the Pension, rarin' to go. I had to put a stop to that. Piano, piano. Now we'll let our hair dry and toodle out to explore the town. In any event, it's off to the Naschmarkt tomorrow..which, I understand, is food and fleas...
more soon!
