- VIENNA, a dream come true to visit at last! Just a day and a night in November 2015, enough to get a feel for the city and enjoy the Christmas ambiance and visit a few of the 25 (!) Christmas Markets in the city: the Christmas Village at Mariatheresien Platz, a glimpse of Stephansdom (the Cathedral) and the delightful Christkindlemarkt at the Rathausplatz!
- LONDON is a city that is best discovered over several visits (so far I'm at 9!) so as not to get overwhelmed. So much to see and do!
