What a day we had. After a fun evening wandering around a magical Vienna at night, everyone woke up refreshed and we had a wonderful breakfast at Meininger Hostel. Everyone was happy with the accommodations, and we enjoyed fresh Brötchen for breakfast. The students quickly figured out how to negotiate the (in my opinion very user-friendly) subway system of Vienna. I am sure they are ready for the underground transportation world of Berlin.
On Saturday morning, the speedy trains carried us to Schönbrunn Palace. Schönbrunn was the summer residence of the Habsburg emperors, and the family portraits of Empress Maria Theresa and her many, many children provided plenty of evidence of her time at the palace.
