The Vienna Woods

Unlike Frankfurt, a smaller city, Vienna encompasses 23 sections referred to as districts. These districts were created starting in 1850 as the city was enlarged by the inclusion of the surrounding communities. The First District, where most tourists visit, contains many of the historical attractions, but residents live throughout all 23 districts. The city even includes the Vienna Woods - forested highlands that form the northeastern foothills of the Northern Alps.

The Eberts invited us for dinner our second night.  They live near the Vienna Woods which are also filled with beautiful vineyards.  After dinner, they took us on an incredibly steep hike to show us the vineyards.


As long as you only take a few at a time, the owners allow people to taste the grapes!




We took in views of our new home.
