... and there was Sunday!
Considering the fact that all shops are closed on Sunday we decided to do a culture Sunday and started early in the morning (well that was the plan, but till we got up, ate some croissants and drank our tea it wasn't early anymore) and rushed to Hofburgkapelle for a morning mass with the Vienna Boys Choir. It was really a good way to start the day with a Joseph Haydn mass - the Mariazellermesse. Loads of people attending, especially chinese. Maybe they wanted to see if it's worth converting.
Afterwards we went to Belvedere for a special Gustav Klimt Exibition. It wasn't an easy task to find the Museum because there was so much mist, but finally we found it and had a great time.
Of course all this culture made us quite hungy and we decided to try a small pub, the Salm Brau http://www.salmbraeu.com/. If you go there you should try the spare ribs, but be careful, a portion for 2 goes a long way as you can see (actually it goes 2 days at least).
And then evening arrived with the highlight of the month... for me at least. The Reamonn concert from the Arena Hall. It was a sold out concert (of course) with the german reggae band Jamaram http://www.jamaram.de/ as opening act. Rea was amazing as always, cracking jokes and singing his heart out, Uwe playing the lead guitar like a pro, Sebi the multi-tasker playing saxophone like there's no tomorrow... but the biggest surprise of the evening was Philipp, the bass player who enchanted us with his piano skills - starting with the classic Somewhere over the rainbow and ending with.... Clocks from Coldplay - and the whole band joined in. It was a great night and hope many more will come! They definitely won a new fan, Rucxandra bought the next day one of their albums :)
