Auf Wiedersehen

[artemisofluna]

Ahhhh I did it. I said Auf Wiedersehen by doing what used to be my favourite thing to do in Vienna. Getting lost. When you're lost you find some pretty impressive things and if you just let it happen instead of panicking, it can be incredible. I used to take the U-bahn to a station I didn't know and just wander until I either found my way back, or another U-bahn station and it was always when I had the best time (that was how I discovered the side entrance to Schoenbrunn I then visited constantly). Today I stayed in the first district because I didn't feel like dealing with the U-bahn and if I got really lost, my poor feet might have killed me. So I just went in a direction I hadn't been before. I found the theatre which will be playing the Dance of the Vampire soon. I found the Pestturm (which I have been looking for, stupid thing!) I found Am Hof, a little shopping district, and I found Petersplatz. Peter's Place (and Peterskirche). How perfectly perfect. When I found Stephansdom again, there was a street magician doing illusions to the song 'Somewhere over the Rainbow' right in front of the Dom. So I watched him and it made me smile. Then I just happened to find the best Wiener Schnitzel I have ever had, completely on accident. And some very nice people too. And I didn't have to punch anyone in their genitals, WHOOHOOO! Oh, and then I ate a Burger King brownie DON'T JUDGE ME!!

I don't think I will purposely lose myself in London or Dublin or Edinburgh because I don't know them well enough to try it. But in Vienna, it was the perfect end to a wonderful, nostalgic visit.

Now back to the epicness than is my current Johan scene, which I am madly pre-writing and which is making me ignore what currentstory I have... Oh Johan, how I adore you. And broody Thomas is annoying anyway! Ahahha so many people will be like "huh?" But OH there was a Thomas' shop right around the corner from Petersplatz hehehhehe YAY!
