I left my bag at office and we went to Schonbrung Palace along with some IITD guys. The palace is majestic, high up on a hill and very grand.

Reached office after a long and beautiful tour of the palace. Was surprised to see a Box of Vienna's Mozart chocolate and a greeting on my desk. It was from my Labmates, Blossey and Franziska... This was least expected as i never told them when my birthday is...maybe they have seen it on my website!! How nice of them. The note said: They just dropped in office to wish me and left since i wasn't there. Too bad i can't meet these folks tomorrow morning to say thanks. I'm traveling to Salzburg and Galossgrockner tomorrow morning and will be back in Vienna only on Tuesday.

BTW, learnt an interesting European custom: Even if you get invited to a party, you pay your own bill.
