I did not go, but if you have time to spare, the ferris wheel may be a good way to see the city! * Travel to Salzburg for a day and see MozartHouse, Mozart's birthplace-gone-museum and the Sound of Music filming locations I wish I was going :( How did I end up so far down the list of student volunteers?

I'm also going to CHI and still looking for a place to stay. That's on the list for today... I'll be quite busy, but I'd love to meet up if possible. Will you be at the networking reception? See you then! Hi Chad. I’m also going to CHI and still looking for a place to stay. That’s on the list for today…

Try to devote at least two or three days to walking around. The coffee shops are rightly famous, wonderful, gorgeous places. Take a minute to learn the lingo, a latte is called a melange, etc. The cakes make me wilt like a little girl. The museums are as good as anywhere else, and you can get a good taste of the Austrian empire, but the architecture -- both old and new -- is what I loved. The art deco post office is a must see. Wish I could be there. Vienna may well be the most beautiful city in the world. Try to devote at least two or three days to walking around.
