The birthplace to out beloved governor, The Sound of Music, and the highest bad street performer per capita in Europe*, Austria has it all. The spread out city has an incredible historic building at every turn, which I regret not taking a tour since I don't know what any of them are, but they were easy on the eyes. Museums are a dime a dozen as Vienna was the musical capital of the world back in the day.
There was also a two month long free outdoor film festival in front of this amazing catholic church** which was free and had amazing food and beer vendors everywhere. Not a bad way to spend a Monday night.
Highlight of Vienna: biergartens + outdoor film fest + late night cheese filled bratwurst = awesome. Also watched several episodes of How I Met Your Mother until the early hour of the morning, an added plus.
