On Easter Sunday evening, before I travelled back to Warsaw the next morning, I took a stroll round Vienna city centre to sample the atmosphere round there:
Above, there was a kind of faint sleet around the Hofburg Theatre and City Hall area.
Moreover, I finally got round to seeing St. Peter's and St. Michael's churches (both just round the corner from St. Stephen's Cathedral), probably the two oldest churches in Vienna:
There was a pleasant surprise in St. Michael's, the Romanesque church immediately above, which was very dark and had Gregorian Chant playing almost inaudibly inside it:
Yeah, in our moronic and spooky politically 'correct' world, Christendom may be a sadly fading entity, but the light hasn't fully gone out yet.
