Saturday afternoon, I went to the Friedhof, a huge cemetery in the suburbs of Vienna. There's a musicians' area with the graves of Beethoven, Schubert, Brahms, Strauss, Wolf, and others.
Jewish graves from the early 1900s.
For "Lange Nacht der Museen" (see my highlight for Saturday for an explanation), we started out at the Leopold Museum.
There were a bunch of posters laid out underneath the glass floor for the upcoming Edvard Munch exhibit.
The second museum we went to was the MUMOK (Modern Art Museum).
3rd Stop: The Heindl Chocolate Museum!
Eating my free sample in front of the big fountain.
My brother Matt has one of these bugs in his collection! I used to call it the "Peanut Bug." Still do, actually :) He and my dad got it when they were in Brazil on a church trip. This was at the Natural History Museum, where we ended the "Long Night of Museums" (around 1:00am).
"On the fifteenth of May, in the jungle of Nool..." (for old times' sake).
