Summer of Slow Travel

There are two of these. They face each other. They were made by the King to be Museums! The collections are equally stunning, but to be housed in such beauty is just a joy to see! (And the food at the cafe was good and reasonably priced.)

The teenager from Milan said the Palace was her favorite part of Vienna. It’s a 20 minute walk from our apartment..so we went today. I kinda liked it.. The Audio guide gave more history of the people than the things… which I prefer.

We went to the Sammlung Batliner-Albertina main museum. In 2007 Mr Batliner gave his collection to the Albertina. Valued at 1 billion €! He collected amazing works, obviously, but I liked this exhibition because there was a pretty quality to most of the paintings. And I like that. They did…

We went there last night. It had several things I did NOT like..ask me when I see you so I can rant! But they did thoughtfully combine pictures and sculpture. More so than I have seen before. I really liked that. I felt like each piece got more interesting next…

We have tried to watch movies filmed in our city. “Before Sunrise” had the Vienna Ferris wheel in it. Shared our car with a family from Milan. The 15 year old girl was so delighted she could actually speak English with me…really fun!,,

Decided to read about our safari. They said “Don’t wear black clothes” Today’s adventure What we look like when we buy two special exhibition tickets: Cigarettes machines!!

Three museums here have showcased a movement called Secessions. They included Klimt (now known as “my boy”] Here are self-portraits of a lot of them.

I’m always fascinated by these painters, I know the last thing they want to do is chat…..but I have a million questions for them.

Wandered into this museum and found this piece Here is my quilt Then… found this room at another museum Still obsessed with Klimt.. and there is more to see here! Loving life

In this park There were rose bushes And a temple Which had this installation inside: Why I love traveling!
