Our Front Window

I thought before I show you the view from "our front window" I should show you the building we live in. Our address is Spittelauer Platz 7/8
1090 Wien
Austria
We have loved the area we are living in. It is very convient to grocery stores, u-bahn stop, resturants, Franz Joseph train station and lets not forget the Euro Shop (dollar store) and Billig und Gut (Cheap and Good). If we wanted to, we could walk to the middle of Vienna in about 20-25 minutes, but who would want to when we are so close to the u-bahn and can get down town in 10 minutes!

This is a picture of our building taken from the park below. The little tree on the left is "dissecting" our front window on the 2nd floor.

I made Tom go out on our balcony and point to "our front window". The window to the left of our front window is our office/guest bedroom and the two windows behind Tom are our bedroom windows.


The "view out my front window" includes these beautiful trees. My view also includes the little playground. How lucky are we to be able to have a view like this despite the fact we are living in a city of 3 million people.


Our November picture out "our front window". The trees have lost most of their leaves. It was fun watching the Vienna cleaning crew rake them all up. There must of been truck loads of leaves!

This is what our front window looks like tonight. Christmas lights hung with "great care" and snowflakes made by some of our students. I love my front window.

Thanks for the information regarding your apartment. I further appreciate you showing the design of the locks on your windows thus making my future "breaking and entering" much easier to plan and execute.
