So here it is. My first Blog post I will start slow and build from here. Keep in mind this is my first exercise in bloggery so I am not exactly sure how to proceed but I will start with a little update about what is going on with us and what we have found to be enjoyable in Vienna thus far.

We have been here now a little over three weeks and Ciara is off and running at school. She almost done with her first full week and is working hard. I have been trying to keep up with my role of house husband so far and have coached one day of cross country.... I know hilarious huh? I am just trying to get my foot in the door on the whole coaching thing. Ciara thought we could just run with the team to get to know the trails in the Vienna woods and we ended up coach Ciara and Coach Andrew. It is great though the other coaches are great people!

We have been enjoying the city so far it is beautiful here and the weather has been great! We have taken a bike ride along the Danube, gone to the Rauthaus for beers and an assortment of food from around the globe. The also play concerts on a gigantic screen at night with a variety that spans from Opera to Zappa plays Zappa. Over the weekend between our house and Ciara's school there was a festival called the Kirtag, my synopsis of the event is a blessing of all the Heuriger's (wine taverns) in the neighborhood quite an interesting event. Apparently, on Ciara's way to school on Tuesday she had to walk from a further distance than usual due to the street being closed for said event. So, she decided to walk through the vineyard on the way to school quite scenic, she bumped in to a couple in lederhausen leaving the vineyard in prime form. It appears they were blessing the vineyard in their own way. Last night we went to a thing called Summer Stage it is on the Danube and basically it is a place to eat and drink out side while the weather is good and watch live music. Though we didn't catch the music part we did partake in the before mentioned activities, enjoying a bit of Mexican food. We had no problem reading that menu. That about sums up my first attempt at bloggery more to come as we plan to venture out this weekend either to Budapest or Prague. At least that is the plan. Caio!
