The Opera!











We had a great evening last night at the Vienna Opera! It was just long enough - 2 hours - and we even got free cds. We thought the balcony seats were great as we were up high and could lean on the velvet thing and throw things at people below!
The music was all Mozart and there were about 15 pieces. There was a male and a female who sang for some of the pieces, who, naturally, had amazing voices.
A friend of Walter's mom, Hilda, made a long four hour journey to come see us from the Saltzburg area. She treated us to a great Italian dinner before the opera and left early this morning to take the train back.
We were all happy we'd made the effort to go!

This afternoon, Cindy joined the COFE team and we are ready to get back on our bikes after 2 full days off!
