Hi!

The temperature during that week will likely be around 20 degrees celsius wink: ).

Well, places to visit here would be the Stephansdom (generally the 1st district -> there are also plenty restaurants, but a bit pricey...), Sch?nbrunn (a palace and the world's oldest zoo), the Kunsthistorisches(art) and Naturhistorisches (nature) museums, the Wurstelprater (entertainment park with the Riesenrad).......

If you need more information, drop me an email!!

I lived in one of the Vienna suburbs (Aspern) for a while. I love Vienna, it's a nice, old European city. The palace is nice if you like that sort of thing and the gardens behind it are really nice in the summertime. The cathedral and the area around it is nice as well, and if you have time to drive out of Vienna for a day or two, that's worthwhile as the Austrian countryside is lovely. I also lived in Burgenland for a while, that's the southeastern part of Austria and it was really beautiful and picturesque.

What's sad is that the biggest thing I remember about Vienna is that I rode my first pony there.
