Internet has been rather harder to come by then I expected…

My mom and I arrived in Vienna in one piece, albeit aftera terrible flight. It started at the airport…We went to terminal 1 at JFK to check in, where Alitalia is located, waited on line for 30 minutesand were then told we needed to go to a different terminal, terminal 3. We took the airtrain over, and ended up at Delta, which no one mentioned wasrunning our flight. Figured that out…then checked in and headed forthe gate which was so far away we were back in terminal 2! We also realized theyhad not given usseats together…and we were in the last row ofthe plane, amidst a large high school singing group. Thankfully we got our seats changed….to a row in front of 2 Italian children who kicked our seats for 7.5 hours, despite being asked to stopbyus and flight attendants, so we got NO sleep. We arrived in Milan exhausted, where we had to wait out a 5 hour layover. I stayed awake the whole time, but fell asleep as soon as I sat down on the teeny-tiny plane.
We finally made it to Vienna…so tired we couldnt even walk a block for dinner, grabbed a quick bite in the hotel and passed out cold.
Vienna, was waiting when we woke up. (Gosh thats a lot of Ws…more if I used the Austrain name for Vienna: Wien.) We spent thenext few days seeing grandiose buildings, swanky royal apartments, bolder-sized crown jewels and partaking in much coffee. (It really is damn good coffee!)
From there it was off to the tiny mountain town of Fiesach, with its yellow and pink buildings, old city walls (and moat) and absolutely lovely people. We spent only one night though, as were trying to make our way to Venice…which has been more difficult then anticipated…theres no train from 10-7, and since we missed theone this morning, well be arriving by dark. Right now were killing time in Villach near the Austrain border, another lovely little place, set amidst snow-capped mountains…picture perfect really.
Okay…thats all for now. I can write more about all this when Im not using a German keyboard. Ugh…I keep hitting or or …
