pop Posted October 16, 2015 Share #201 Posted October 16, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) Elderly? I certainly feel it, have a stinking cold- the wine last night was medicinal . Were you and I facing each other? Tie and jacket? Your wife offered you some of her sausage and you declined? Incidentally, your wife was gracious enough to acknowledge us when we sat down, and also nodded goodbye when you left. In this case, it was quite another couple I had in mind. We will know presently, I expect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

StS Posted October 16, 2015 Share #203 Posted October 16, 2015 For those planning to visit the Albertina, my suggestion would be to start with the Munch exhibition and to use the other exhibitions to lighten things up again a bit... Stefan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

earleygallery Posted October 16, 2015 Share #206 Posted October 16, 2015 Is there a meet tonight for drinks? I guess we're all rather spread out in terms of where people are staying though. Horrible weather today but the forecast is brighter for tomorrow at least! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted October 16, 2015 Author Share #207 Posted October 16, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) Just an update on the meeting at lunchtime tomorrow We will be meeting in the keller and not upstairs on the roof. We bumped into Carsten there last night and he has confirmed that upstairs won't be suitable but they have given us a large room in the keller. The weissbier is rather good, btw Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stefan We were there this am. A laugh-a-minute Munch is not. The exhibition really is a descent into madness. The photographs on the ground floor are worth seeing and there is an Elliott Erwitt exhibition and print sale at the Leica store nearby. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
earleygallery Posted October 16, 2015 Share #209 Posted October 16, 2015 I've 'done' the camera shops, so very tempting to get a little souvenir, but the prices! I'm selling up and moving here to open a camera shop! Also did the World Press Photo exhibition. Always guaranteed to bring ones mood down - it strikes you how 'we' live on this amazing planet but seem intent on causing death & destruction wherever possible. I need a beer to brighten me up!

andybarton Posted October 17, 2015 Author Share #214 Posted October 17, 2015 It's been a great day today. The weather gods were kind. The city is beautiful. The venue was great, if a little hot tonight !, and the good was food and plentiful. Thanks to everyone who made it a really good day. Here's to the next one in... Well, that will have to wait until another post when I get home I look forward to receiving entries over the next couple of weeks. Good luck to you all!

farnz Posted October 18, 2015 Share #217 Posted October 18, 2015 Just returned after the night Challenge and I think I almost prefer Vienna after dark because its so beautifully lit and the architecture and statuary add a wonderful elegance. Massive thanks to Andy for organising! It was wonderful to meet up with such great friends again and to welcome newcomers who I hope will come again next year along with the die-hards. Wishing everyone a safe and pleasant trip home. Pete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
