Found it....


At last. I was looking in the wrong place by going to the museum quarter but have now found where the footballing atmosphere is to be had. I was outside St. Stephens church right in the heart of the city. As Austria are playing Poland in Vienna tonight there was a large presence of supporters and I am happy to say virtually no police !! The Poles definitely outnumbered the Austrians and were very vocal indeed. Everyone was having a great time and the opposing supporters were all shaking hands with each other and having friendly banter. Now thats what it is all about. The photos below were taken earlier when I was there. I particulary like the one with Dath Vadar holding an Ausrian flag, me, a couple of Polish fans in front of the church. Just a bit of contrast all in one photo ;) I also went to the world famous Sacher cafe to have some of their world famous torte.... Delicious :)





Peace and Love
