UEFA Euro 2008

Let's go narrisch! :-p

One...

... opportunity to verify absolute madness:

Two...

... horses and a carriage, thats' all you need.

Three...

... things to keep the city clean:

1

2

3

All of the surrounding parks will be closed in order to prevent their flora and fauna from drowning in pee.

Four...

... weeks will the Ringstraße be closed... the hell of a nightmare. :-)

Even some buses and trams will be closed or redirected for four weeks.

Five...

... days remaining, we look at the Mondays part of our toilet paper and some brave men and women begin to enrich our beloved city of Vienna with a so called Fanzone. As the map shows, it is located between Rathaus and Burgtheater and follows the Ringstraße to the end of the Hofburg:

Viennese thought: In and maybe never out again?

The UEFA offers huge video walls where we will be able to watch the games and places where we can eat and drink. By the way, a cold cup of true Carlsberg beer will empty your wallet about 4 euro and 50 cent.

Eating, drinking and public watching do make sense but take at look at this piece of art. Could you immagine what the f**k this is? Maybe some kind of a VIP area?!

And you will even be able to play some soccer if you want to:

Of course, if the weather will get much better. :-)

Six...

Recognizing my last posting was almost five weeks ago I seriously became a little ashamed. :-)

Well, there is much to do preparing for ERASMUS. Lots of administrative stuff makes my days running fast and besides I'm currently doing somewhere around thirty to fourty ECTS this term. From February until now I foraged already nine certifications and we are still counting. The battle is not over yet.

All in all I've got some nice time around now. Looking forward to Barcelonas city life and a seemingly never ending summer makes one become very satisfied. :-)

So, what is next? The UEFA EURO 2008 will start in exactly six days from now:

I'm very excitied about how it will be. Vienna is already preparing for this huge event and I'm trying to post some pictures of all the preparation work for the next few days.
