We're here

I can't wait anylonger. Welcome to Ach Bruder. A website about living in Vienna, Austria. We arrived yesterday. Our flight was pleasant thanks to the sleeping pills we popped after dinner which helped us snooze away four hours of the flight. The flight wasn't so pleasant for Colfax who was in solitary confinement under the airplane. When I retrieved him from baggage claim I noticed that he was soaked in his own urine. Poor little bastard. Even more distrubing was the fact that he wasn't meowing constantly as he usually does even when we're at home. Even now, 24 hours later he isn't back to his talkative self. We realized as we were taking off that he hates vacuum cleaners more than anything on earth, and he must've felt like he was inside one for 10 hours with the constant hum of the engines. We're in temporary housing for the next few weeks. It's a fairly large condo twenty minutes out from the city center. Vienna is very nice, and actually feels sort of small, definitely not as crowded as London or Paris. There is amazing art and architecture everywhere and there are trams running down the middle of the streets. More to come, plus pictures.
