Vienna Day 5!
Free day today! A ton of people were doing day trips either to Salzburg or Budapest, and I was originally going to do Budapest, but your girl is tired. Train tickets were 70 euros, it's a 3 hour train ride, and I would have had to wake up early. So instead I decided to stay in Vienna and hang out with the other Vienna goers. I had a nice lazy start to the day, woke up right before 10, ate breakfast, and then got ready. Then Theresa, Grace, Tate, and I headed to the mall to do some shopping. I got a super cute dress that I’m really excited about and Theresa got some really cute shirts.
From the mall, we headed to Cafe Central, which is a really famous cafe that the Vienna Circle frequented (a group of super important mathematicians, philosophers, physicists). It’s a super popular place, so we had to wait outside for a while, and it was dumping rain on us. Thank goodness for my shawl and Theresa’s umbrella! We didn't have to wait a super long time luckily, and good conversation always makes the time go faster, so before we knew it we were inside. Theresa is a philosophy major with a physics minor so she was so excited and it was super fun to be able to experience it with her. It was lunch time, so I got this celery cream soup and some chocolate cake Viennese style. When they brought out the soup it had this orange fluff on it and I was very confused. And then when I tasted it, it tasted like salty orange so I was very apprehensive. But I mixed it all together and it ended up being a lot better than I expected! My favorite part was definitely the chocolate cake though. It was warm and covered with melted chocolate, and it came with ice cream and whipped cream on the side. It was just vanilla ice cream but it had almost a caramelly buttery taste to it and it was sooo good. I kept finding more surprises in the dessert haha. Underneath the whipped cream was almonds, and then when I lifted up the ice cream bowl, it had been stuck to the plate with marzipan! Very yum, and then the cutest tiniest little strawberry on the side.
When we got back I literally blogged my life away (for you guys :3), ate chocolate, strawberry gummies, and a nectarine for dinner, and had a chill night in the hotel lobby!
Thanks for blogging your life away for us 💗
