The sun was out and shining for our Saturday adventure, and the subway didn't take long to get us over to a different part of the city and another national treasure, the State Opera House. We decided a guided tour would be a nice way to view the entire property, and after a short wait and stop of a nearby coffee house we were off. If only we would have had time to see a show!
Soon after our tour was complete, we had one more major stop: Schloss Schonbrunn and the famous Christmas Market in the courtyard. It took us a while to walk through most of the major rooms and sections throughout, and at times it felt as though you were stepping back in time. I enjoyed seeing the Imperial Apartments the most and much of the ornate furnishings.
Dinner for the evening was a true Austrian experience, Restaurant Ofenloch. Another schnitzel try and we came away very impressed (and full). We were lucky to get a reservation on such short notice - next time, we need to make sure to email plenty ahead.
One last stop at the Am Hof Christmas market and our day was complete!
