In the "Burgenland"


In the small towns of Moerbisch, and St. Margarethen, in the Austrian Province of "Burgenland"
we saw two absolutely magnificent performances.
We stayed at the Pension "Sonnenhof" (above)...and on the 16th July
we went to very nearby St. Margarethen, where, in a stone quarry, used in Roman times,
an astonishing outdoor arena had been built, seating over 4500 visitors.
There we witnessed a great performance of "Rigoletto".

A small street scene of Moerbisch.


In many, flower-bedecked side alleys you may purchase a glass
or two, or a bottle, or a case of the best wines grown there.
In Moerbisch, on the 17th July, we saw "My Fair Lady"...
