RE: Silvester/Neujahr in Wien // New Year's Eve/ New Year in Vienna
Dear AG,
It's nice to know that you have been on the streets of Vienna before. Even if it was a brief visit, you probably caught some of the flair of this city. It's so hard to capture the atmosphere on photos.
... This is sheer poetry.
I had to smile when I read this. I actually see myself as a very prosaic writer, without any talent for poetry. So much for the self and external image! 🙃 But I'm very happy about your view on my writing style. 🌷
Since I still enjoy writing a lot, I will probably let my readers take part in my excursions into art and culture even more often. it will be a great pleasure for me if you accompany me on these tours. 😃
To many common years on "our" blockchain!
Take care! Much love, your friend from across the sea,
Anna
Hi Anna,
I'm smiling about the contrast between self and external image. You can believe me about your writing: I'm not skilled at much but my formal training is in literary analysis. I have a good "ear". The lack of artifice adds value--prosaic, and eloquent 😇
I was in Vienna in 1972, for I think two days, traveling with my mother. We stayed in a pension near the Opera House. It was the week before Easter. There was a celebratory air, everywhere. My mother would have loved it, but she was ill, and we never really got to tour the city. So I'm looking forward to your Easter blog 🐣🌷
Love, from very chilly New York
AG
Servus AG,
Maybe you know the expression "Servus". It's a friendly greeting, which is used in the welcome as well as in the farewell.
It's a pity that you haven't seen more of Vienna due to your mother's illness. In almost 5 decades a lot has changed in the city. I'm happy to present you some highlights of the Vienna today with its eventful history.
Baba (a farewell that is especially common in Vienna), have a good time!
Love from VieAnna 🌷
