The History of Vienna from a WJU Perspective

And the second in the series is from Jake Zirkle (class of 2014):

WJU Students and Vienna's History

After a bit of a hiatus, we are back. During the summer months, we will post the student's perceptions of how Vienna grapples with its history as well as various items related to former students of the history department and current faculty. We start today with Kayla Mason (class of 2014) and her appreciation of Vienna and its history.

Vienna Day Eight: Country Roads (or Flight Paths) Take Me Home

After waking up bright and early, it was time to begin the long trip back to West Virginia. Our first stop was the Amsterdam airport, where students shopped, rested, and reminisced about the trip.

Vienna Day Seven: A Biergarten and Eiscafe

After a tiring day of exploring the palace grounds, we ended our last evening in Vienna at a typical Biergarten. Just as we began our trip with a meal together, we also ended our trip with a meal together at the Universitaets Brauhaus right in the middle of the University of Vienna.

Vienna Day Seven: The Imperial Zoo

The Imperial Zoo was the next event on our last day in Vienna. It was behind the Schoenbrunn Palace next to the labyrinth. There was a wide variety of animals throughout the zoo. The first exhibit included rhinos, deer, and mountain goats. One of the crowd favorites was the Red Panda.
