Purbach Wine Tasting and Enjoying Vienna!

Purbach, a small town right outside of Vienna is the center of Austria's wine country.  Once every year, the town comes together for a ceremony (blessing of the vineyards). To celebrate a good year, every winery opens their door to the people of the town and anyone who travels to see the experience. Overall, there is not much to say other then the fact that the town is very cute, the wine was delicious, (there were 26 wineries with over 6 bottles each of wine to taste) and we had an amazing time!!!

Here are a few pictures!

The city centre...filled with small houses where the vineyards set up shop to sell wine!
The town's Nigerian priest blessing the wine- he drank a lot too!
MMM...Fresh Wine!
Meanwhile, back in Vienna, we have been trying to enjoy the city. The Christmas season officially kicked off tonight. Other then that, we have been trying new things, exploring new cafe's, and enjoying each other's company. Branching out and meeting new people has been an amazing decision. 

I look sad! I swear I'm not!
