This is us waiting for the opera to start. We are in the Galariestehplatz area. It is at the very top where we can see the entire stage and orchestra! Luckily there is railing for us to lean against and also screens with English translation.

Opera Time
Well my time in Vienna has been nurtured by music...it being the city of music! I have gone to two operas so far: Carmen and Die Zauberflote. Carmen is a French opera and has some familiar tunes but Die Zauberflote (The Magic Flute) is where my heart finds joy! The opening note gave me goosebumps and I thoroughly enjoyed the entire three hours of standing for it. The Queen of the Night song is one of my favorite parts but unfortunately I can only recreate this moment when I sing in the shower because it is so HIGH! Mozart was so ahead of his time and so talented.
