24 hours in Vienna

If I had a list of things to do before I die, and if on that list was “get kissed by a girl I just met 24 hours after being in a country I’ve never been in before, without ever knowing her name” then tonight I’d be crossing that one off. Of course I don’t have such a list, but now I’m thinking it might not be a bad idea. Anyway as you might guess it’s been a fairly action packed day or so since I got into town. Here’s a bunch of photos I took at the Roboxotica 2007 opening event but a few things I’ve learned so far:

  • At some restaurants they will refuse to bring you water unless you order another beverage with a price tag.
  • At Starbucks, a large latte comes with only 2 shots
  • You can rent bikes on the street from automatic machines.
  • Pouring several gallons of Orange Juice and Vodka into a vintage cement mixer and then basically waterboarding someone with it may not be a smart idea, but it’s damn entertaining.

OK, it’s almost 4am here, I need to go to sleep. More news, photos, and even some video coming soon.

UPDATE!!! OK, two videos from roboxotica are now posted after the jump.
