We got to Vienna at 8:30 AM, but our flight for Amman leaves at 10:45 tonight, so we spent all day wandering around Vienna. We saw all the main tourist places (


Not speaking or understanding German has been both frustrating and advantageous. For some reason, most people we've encountered don't speak English, so we just stare at them and the help us. The french fry lady maybe gave us a discount after being flabergasted by us staring and pointing, and the ticket checker on the train gave Nancy a good reprimanding in German after we didn't stamp our tickets before going on, but he didn't fine us and moved on, frustrated.
We're travelling with about 20-30 other students on this flight - the rest are already in Amman. We're hanging out with the married couples, two of which have little kids. Two of the guys didn't bring their spouses, and two did (besides the two with kids - total of 6 couples (minus 2 wives) on our flight).
Our flight leaves in 2 hours, but the battery on this laptop is slowly dying and the only available plug is the one between the airport tavern and the cigarette vending machine right by the entrance to the bathrooms - not the most sanitary place.
So, have a great day! Next time we post we'll be in Amman!
