josefstadtstrasse, wien 1080
lightened my baggage by 4 kg, which only cost 37 euro to post - at 6.50 per kg, rather more palatable than the 36 euro per kg that austrian air charge. won't be recommending them to anyone after the way they turned on me yesterday, extremely unhelpful and seemed to view my distress as an attempt to get out of paying for the excess. when it was actually genuine frustration and despair.
managed to entertain myself for the day, saw an incredible exhibition of images "earth from above" on display in large format outside the museums quartier.

also rediscovered the place bianca took me to in burggasse, möbel, a very cool funky art bar-cafe that sells beautiful designy things. not that I'm shopping, oh no no no. Today meeting Konrad for a coffee, and maybe will check out the balkan festival tonight. on the plane again in the morning. I hope :) have thrown away some junk -mostly bits of paper I picked up here and there, and with a little judicious packing should be fine.
