O veste proasta pentru toti care sau bucurat de zborurile ieftine Timisoara – Viena – Timisoara. Acu cateva zile am primit mail de la Skyeurope ca biletele mele, incepand din 19. Decembrie, au fost toate anulate. Mailu care mi la trimis Skyeurope nu zice nimica despre motivele. Dupa putine discutii prin mail am putut doar sa aflu ca Skyeurope nu va mai zbura spre Timisoara din 23. Decembrie. Dece mi-au anulat si biletu de pe Data de 19. Decembrie inca nu mia raspuns nimeni. Pacat … “It was fun while it lasted”. Se pare ca iara trebe sa bag kilometri cu masina

US to attack Iran out of Romania, Hungary and Germany?
According to tomorrows release of the Romanian newspaper “Ziua” the US is planing to attack Iran out of Romania, Hungary and Germany. Not so sure how good this source is the only fact that is sure is that the CIA boss, Michael Hayden, was on a unannounced trip to Romania, this can also be read in “Jurnalul National“
I can only hope that Romania will not get involved into this, but as the past has shown, Romania is very good at kissing USA’s ass.

Floridita
Yesterday I was in Floridita, a cuban dace bar in Vienna. If you visit their website and know what song it is that’s playing please tell me So where was I, yes, yesterday in Floridita with Ovidiu. As usual in Floridita it’s great. Nice atmosphere great music, great drinks and of course a cigar Going there by public transport wasn’t that easy. It’s quite a while since I went somewhere by public transport, but to get to floridita should be pretty easy, if the tram is going where it should. Unfortunately yesterday was love parade in Vienna, which I found out as we almost arrived floridita. Anyway the tram brought us near Prater instead of the first district, but that wasn’t to bad, U1 goes to the first district and after over an hour we finally arrived. Well there is nothing more to say, I can hardly describe the good mojito or the ron de cuba with a good cigar
Krapfenwaldlbad - Swinming with a great view over vienna
Where can you go cool down when it’s hot in Vienna? Well there are a lot of places, but one that you should visit is Krapfenwaldlbad The swimming pools are not really great, but the view will compensate for that. Anyway, I wouldn’t go to often there since it’s to crowded in the small pool. But look at the photos and decide for your self.
Weather gone crazy
Yesterday we had “a bit” of a thunderstorm in Vienna. Winds up do 120km/h killed 2 people and ripped trees apart within some minutes. Luckily I came home just as the wind started it’s action.
