Arrived safely, but been off the internet since we got here.  Saw the Marriage of Figaro the first night.  interesting question midway through the opera.  The Count asks if he must suffer so that all the others may be happy.  It struck me as a rather theological / christological question.  Went to St Stephen's, the Cici museum, Hapsburgs, Schoenbroon Palace...

tomorrow we head to Budapest for the day.  Then to the Vienna Boys choir and 'the horses' on Sunday.  Monday we leave for Melk, for the Old Catholics' meeting.  This is the first time Marsha's been with me for this time...so we've added a week's vacation.  Fortunately, she has met most of the bishops in the International Bishops' Conference (IBK).

Probably won't enter anything on Saturday, as internet is expensive...but will write later.

Thanks for following!
