As a final note to this trip to Austria I have to give a shout out to the excellent service recieved on board Austrian Airlines flight from Vienna to Newark. The crew were warm and friendly, the food impressive and their attention to passenger safety honorable.
Two hours into a 9 hour flight an announcement is made asking "is there a doctor on board?" Another 15 minutes later it is determined the flight needs to make a landing in Dublin to get this passenger the medical attention they need. However a plane full of fuel is not allowed to land due to possible hazard of a hard impact setting off a fire ... So over the Atlantic we flew while the pilot jetsend fuel. Dublin emergency crew were waiting and quickly got the ailing passenger off the plane and on the way to a Dublin hospital. Dublin airport was already prepared to see our plane was quickly refueled. Than we had to wait for a new flight plan to be approved before we could take off to complete the flight to Newark. An unavoidable delay meant many passengers missed a connecting flight. Fortunately I always request LONG layovers so I was able to make mine with 15 minutes to spare. Happy to arrival home safely with such great memories of my time in Austria. Where to next?! ;)

From Piber my guide and I continued on to the UNESCO city of Graz, recognized for it's architecture of buildings both old and new. We walked the steets in the heart of the old city and grabbed a cappuccino and dessert at one of the many side walk Cafe.

One of the highlights of my trip to Austria was paying a visit to the Lippizaner stud farm in Piber. These beautiful white horses are famous from the Spanish Riding School shows in Vienna. They begin life with very dark coats that gradually turn to gray and than after about 5 years are fully white. We saw the stalions, mares and foals and watched a morning training session before a tour of the estate museum and finally a lovely lunch in their Cafe.

Visiting your ancestors homelands is big business these days with many companies like Ancestry.com ready to set up the entire trip for you. I made my own arrangements and with the aid of two locals was able to visit nearby villages, cemeteries and search parish records. I was even able to meet up with 'cousins', descendent of my great grandfather's brothers.

Avalon Waterways tour came to an end after a very rainy 2 days in Vienna. Some passengers headed to the airport and home, others continued to other areas of Europe. I continued with a flight to Klagenfurt to follow up on family genealogical research I have been pursuing for many years. The gale winds were quickly drying up the wet ground but made me nervous to board a prop jet. Our pilot did an amazing job on both take off and landing. Whew! Meanwhile the view from above showed the recent sudden drop of temperatures from 90s to 40s had brought snow to the mountain peaks.

The heavy rains I have been experiencing in Vienna turned deadly for central Europe. Areas of Austria, Hungary, Slovakia, Czeck Republic and Poland under disaterous flood conditions. Hoping there is a break in weather soon. 🙏
