Day 05 in Vienna

... and our last day in Vienna arrived :(
With light drizzle and clouds, all we could do was... to go shopping for the last items on our lists :)
Unfortunately, Sky Europe called and told us the flight was 2 hours delayed so we had 2 more hours to shop some more... (which wasn't that bad after all!)
We ate lunch at the Naschmarkt http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naschmarkt, in a really small chinese restaurant and then we bought some delicatessen for the people at home (cheese and some johannisbrot - in romanian roscove - which i haven't figured out how you can eat them...) .
We ended up where we started our shopping spree - on the Mariahilfer Strasse and we stopped at the Coffee Shop in the Thalia Bookstore for some R & R. It's a really nice place where a lot of young girls come to do their homework (it's better to write your essays in a Coffee Shop than at home in your room ;P).
After rearranging our luggage ( I bet you will never guess why :)) we ran in the rain to catch the bus which was taking us to the airport and arrived 5 seconds before it's departure... (the buses, not the plane's), and half an hour later we were at the airport.
During our long wait for the plane we found out the differences between various house music styles (minimal, out house, in house or something like that... we don't know which) in a discussion between a famous?! DJ we never heard of (but it's not like we know any...) and a romanian singer (I won't name names, because he is not that famous). The conversation was so uplifting it's a wonder we didn't took off immediately... but when we finally took off we regreted almost instantaneously - we had such a turbulent flight (the worse I have been in), at one point I was picturing some crash landing from the movie Airplane with Leslie Nielsen that I started laughing isterically, but what can you do in such situations? Kiss your ass goodbye and hope for the best! Luckily we had a very good pilot and we survived to tell the tale...
This is how our trip to Vienna ended, I hope many more trips will come in the near future! I will keep you updated :)
