Arrival at Vienna International Airport
Just like when I flew to Amsterdam, I slept the whole day and suddenly arrived in Vienna. Something I'd been wondering since departure: everyone here calls it "Wien," so why is the Austrian capital called "Vienna" or "Bin" in Korea? Even the sausages are called "Vienna sausages." It seems like "Wien International Airport" would be the right name, but I really don't get it.
Vienna Airport is divided into several buildings, but I didn't know that and mistakenly thought there was only one restaurant. It's a place called "Wiener Gold" right as you walk out. I only recommend going in if you are so incredibly hungry that it feels dangerous not to eat right now.
Honestly, I couldn't quite tell if I had arrived in Europe or China, but seeing all the random assortments of cheese in this supermarket finally made it feel like Europe. Plus, though it's not in the photo, seeing beer that was cheaper than water definitely made me think, "Yep, this is Europe."
My idea of Europe ultimately boils down to: all kinds of cheese + all kinds of ham + beer cheaper than water.
The train station heading into the city is located inside the airport. At first, I bought a ticket thinking it would be like the subway back home, but it was a nightmare to navigate. It's super easy to get lost, much like the transfer sections between subways and trains in Korea, and sure enough, I got lost.
But I'll talk about that later...
Anyway, even after arriving at Vienna International Airport in Austria, we've been stuck waiting here for two hours unable to go anywhere. It's my first business trip, but it's pretty boring...
I was so restless that I thought about going out to look around for a bit, but I gave up after looking at the map. Looking at the map, I thought there was a flood.
