Come, my friends, and join me as we take a break from the cold chill of winter and tour Vienna! First we will visit the Golden Hall and listen to some waltzes played by a philharmonic. After that some joyous festival dancers, an old monastery, beautiful ballet in a wonderfully gorgeous and misty castle, and finally the Blue Danube!! No, I did not go there, but took these pictures as I watched a memorable T.V. show on P.B.S. I just had to share, so come dance with me!
An ordinary night with ordinary sheep and
ordinary shepherds. And were it not for a God who loves to hook an “extra” on
the front of the ordinary, the night would have gone unnoticed. The sheep would
have been forgotten, and the shepherds would have slept the night away. But God
dances among the common. And that night He did a waltz.

Thanks for allowing me to join you. I really like the quote from Max Lucado.
I'm not much of a dancer, but I enjoyed the trip to Vienna. You got some great pictures from the TV.
Hi Ginny!! I hope the new year is on the right track for you and it will treat you kindly.
It's been a long time since you've stopped by to say hello, but in any case, I wanted to swing by "Let Your Light Shine" to wish you the best of 2013!!
Loved the PBS photos.
Ahhhhh---I just relaxed and went to Vienna with you... What beauty!!!! WOW.... I can hear the Viennese Waltz playing in the background, can't you????
Great post. Thanks!!!!
Have a great weekend.

Beautiful pictures. I can never get good shots when I take pictures of the tv. They are always full of lines and look horrible
What a great idea and great way to share something you enjoyed - I think those photos were gorgeous!
I would have thought you were there Ginny, the photos are great. Watching the ballet is a nice break from winter's dreary cold.
I did join Meowbook and I'm learning it too. I just sent you a friend request. I joined as Judy W.
You have a special way with combining pictures and quotes! :)
Nice article Ginny. Vienna is one of the top cities of Europe. Occasionally I have to go there for work.
Greetings,

Oh, I love the quote at the bottom of your post. It gave my heart a warm little hug. Thank you.
Your blogging sister, Connie :)
