  3. Hi tutubi, sorry that I only provided that info =) The slab contains very few names of den Helden (the heroes), considering that the war was started by a man born here =) I'd look back there and try to find the story behind it.

  4. =D @Dong...there are lots of these 'landscapes' full of flowers, I think the ones responsible are 'Unsere Garten' (our Garden) who maintains thes small lots...I'd post more in the coming days.

  14. Gizelle, the comment you left on my blog piqued my curiosity. You said you saw a photo of me with tulips in the foreground? Where? (As far as I know, there are no photos of me on the Internet).

  15. Fenix, I meant a photo that you took and not one that you were in it =) Sorry bout the confusion....

  16. Janet, If your camera has a macro it will do! ( I am using a P&S camera), its fun!

    This is at the 21st district where buses 30a and 32a passes by, when you go to Stammersdorf with 30a and to Leopoldau with 32a, you won't miss it...
