We conquered our last two "musts" today. First, we took the U-bahn to the outskirts of Vienna where the Zentralfriedhof (Central Cemetery) is located. Beethoven, Johann Strauss, Brahms and Schubert are buried in Zentralfriedhof. Mozart has a memorial there as well...his actual grave was lost. Composers who have taken on a fairy tale type image were made real as I stood at the foot of their graves. It was a very surreal experience.
