We stayed in Vienna for only 3 days, but we got a good glimpse of the city. If I went back I'd be sure to see some music, since that's what I really missed out on this time. The buildings are impressive, the Belvedere Garden was amazing, even in winter, and we went to a cool museum, The House of Music.
The first day we went to the House of Music. There were exhibits for composers, the Philharmonic Orchestra, the Science of Sound, and Modern Ways of Making Sounds.

| Marcio in the Sound Brain room - crazy place. |

| Take off shoes and scan hand to calibrate... |
 |
Then the device reads your motions and generates sound based on them.
Wow. |
After that we saw the museum of an artist/architect there. Finally we went to the gardens at the Belvedere.

| Marcio ice skating in front of the City Hall. Sweet. |
We left Vienna by train and slept one night in Budapest before catching a flight back to Eindhoven. Then we took a bus, then a train to get back to Delft! We met Aline here, and that's where I am now!
Tomorrow more of the gang shows up (Bojan, Shirin, and Isa), which kind of marks the beginning of the semester for me. We've got to start Winter School on the 30th. Here we go!
