Dubai vs. Vienna

Well, not that they are competing, but there are definitely some differences that are hilarious. First of all, I joined a Wellness Lifestyle Center, or something like that, which is code for "I pay too much for the gym." and while we were on the tour we looked into the sauna and saw a completely naked guy. Uh, no thanks! Then, after I went to spinning we decided to shower at the gym and everyone was just running around naked and sitting on the furniture and I was freaking out and trying to just stare straight ahead with complete tunnel vision. While, in Dubai there was a sign that said "Nudity is not permitted". I think I was a bit more comfortable in that setting! Earlier in the week we were out to dinner at this really cute Italian brick oven pizza place that is right down the street and instead of it being unlicensed, there was a family having dinner with a bottle of whiskey on the table, the mom and dad were drinking that while the teenage son was drinking HUGE beers. Oh, did I mention the waiter and the guy making the pizzas were also drinking tall glasses of whiskey on ice that were big enough to look like ice tea. Prost! I'm not sure if it would be considered a point for or against Vienna... but I have MASSIVE blisters covering my heels because I think I've walked somewhere around a million miles in the last couple of weeks, it is unreal! 

Work started today, should be interesting! Tomorrow we have a city tour and dinner at the Rathous, I also am going to look at another apartment. I have had zero luck so far, but just got an e-mail from one of the places that I looked at that says the mom, who is making the final decision, wants to talk to me. I'm not sure there's a better renter than me, one person, female, non-smoker, no pets... Ugh. I hope I get it.
