We had a brief stop in Vienna before heading home. To see as much as possible, we scheduled a walking tour in the morning to explore the city center of Vienna. It’s a very beautiful area and just as walkable as the other Central European spots but with what feels like grumpier drivers. 

We started at Stephansdom, the main catholic cathedral in Vienna. A bit over half the population is Catholic with a very small portion Protestant.

Rawls top Vienna request, an “amazing” sausage. Found! At Bitzingers 

For the afternoon we visited Schonbrunn Palace, the royal summer palace. No photos allowed on the interiors

And then the highlight of our day, Shepherd’s request upon seeing this was to go to the Strudel show at the Schonbrunn palace. Turned out to be very well done and a special guest joined the show around 2:22. Best day of the trip per S
