2009.04.24 - Day 1 at Vienna with Judith & Hessel

Friday 24th of April 2009, Nicole and I and our friends Judith & Hessel went to Vienna. Our flight details were as follow:
07:10 - 08:35 Amsterdam to Munchen;
09:25 -10:30 Munchen to Vienna.
So Judith and Hessel picked us up at 04:00h and we arrived at Schiphol Airport at 05:00h.
Just dropping the luggage because we already checkin on the internet. So far so good, BUT.......
Our plane was delayed for almost an hour so we were about to take off around 08:00h.
Note: Geert Wilders was arriving at the airport with heavy armed cars and just got in the plane next to us. Pictures of this will be posted.
Due to our delay we came to the check in at Munchen at 09:30 and they just closed the gate GRRR!!!!! so hoping that there was another flight available. It must be our lucky day because they booked us to Vienna at 11:00h. I must say that there were a lot of people at the check in desk due to a delayed flight so Lufthansa must be doing something wrong.......
The planes of Lufthansa were very nice to fly with so no comment on this. Because we had to wait for an hour we had a look at the airport of Munchen: VERY VERY VERY nice, pictures will be posted also.
Around 12:00h we arived finally in Vienna :)
Now we had to go to the hotel. We stayed at Hotel Allegro Wien, 5 minutes with the metro from the center of Vienna. After going with the airport bus, searching for the right metro/train we finally arrived at the hotel around 15:00 - 16:00h. Just taking a quick shower and off t0 the center. Of course we took the wrong direction of the metro, so we could not find the center immediately, but at the beginning of the evening the found it!!!!
So just walking to the shopping street and I must say, dammm what an exclusive cars and shops, but a very lovely city center. That evening we had dinner at an restaurant underground: Spare Ribs and a lot of ribs and they tasted great. After dinner back to the hotel and off to bed. Breakfast the second day at 07:30h!
