Closed on Sundays

Today I wanted to buy leggings so I could wear my long tunic without pants and not die from the heat. Unfortunately, everything is closed on Sundays. Seriously, all clothing or retails stores, apart from souvenir shops, have been closed all day. According to one of the women with us, that's just how Vienna is. Leggings aside, I did make it through the day with jeans so all is well.
Ali and I went down to the complementary breakfast around 9:30 this morning, it was delicious. I got a hard boiled egg, bread (with nutella and honey), croissant, cheese, black olives, earl grey tea, and cookie crisp cereal. It was delicious.

Before and after breakfast I spent stupid amounts of time trying to get my hair to stay in some kind of bun with only 2 hair ties and 4 bobby pins. My hair is too long to do most anything, but I ended up with a braided-bun that stayed (for the most part).
At 10:30 we made our way as a group to the Museum of Art History in Marie Teresa Square. We all got audio tour devices and had several hours to wander.

One of my favorite pieces was "Allegorie der Vergänglichkeit" by Antonio de Pereda, http://images.zeno.org/Kunstwerke/I/big/sch085.jpg
I also liked "Paulussturz" by Parmigianio because the man in the painting reminded me of my favorite author, Patrick Rothfuss:

There was also a room devoted to Dionysus (or Bacchus), including goblets and other drinking/party related relics.
(Update 7/15, I cannot for the life of me remember exactly what this was, but the chair was involved in an old drinking game and whoever passed got to sign their name in the book. It was incredibly famous and many important historical figures have signed their names in the book):

The entire museum was incredible and there was just room after room filled with amazing paintings. There was also a wing with sculptures and jewelry, as well as quite a bit of Eqyptian sarcophagus, papyrus, and etchings.
After that, the big group split up and I went with a small group to walk around and get food.

We also visited the reflecting pool again, just to see it during the day. It's in the middle of a park, so it's very pretty. There was also a group of Austrian guys playing basketball. Shirtless. No big deal.
Anywho, I am resting my feet before going to dinner tonight with the group of teachers and students. Tomorrow we don't leave until 5pm so some of us are thinking about going to the zoo, which is apparently the oldest zoo in the world!
