Vienna is a city where father and son can scooter along gardenless houses down winding sidewalks in harmony. Where you dont want to step in the puddles because they are most likely to be horse-piss. Its a place where at night in the summer, Gelateries are the most traffic-dense areas. Vienna is a city with a past of artisans whose masterpieces still linger and never cease to inspire. Its buildings are covered with intricate frill. Watch out for the roads, because those cars will speed by so close, but you dont have to worry about getting run over by cyclists. The majority of the city goes to bed at 10pm, the minority are the fans of the EuroCup 08 who stay up well into dawn.

The EuroCup is a culture in its own. This year Vienna and Switzerland are hosting the games, and thosands of fans flock to the city to cheer in unison. Thos Polish are the rowdiest, even after a game lost, they cheer and tribal dance around red flares which is hypnotic to watch.
