    Vienna - I'd suggest you see the incinerator in the 9th district, beautiful building. And dont miss out a visit to the Augarten - 2nd district.

    The Christkindlmarkt is fine, but is only open until Christmas, for the rest of the Winter you might consider spending some hours in a Cafe like the Prückel, http://www.prueckel.at/ , you can read various magazines there are have never-ending conversations on anything (that is, assuming you are not American and do not attempt to tell Austrians how to run their lives)

    This tip has the address "Stubenring 24, 1010 Wien, Austria"

    Avoid the Christkindlmarkt in front of Rathaus (Town Hall) - there are much nicer ones on Karlsplatz, opposite of Heldenplatz (between the two Museums) and in front of Schönbrunn.

    The one on Karlsplatz is especially nice because they sell tasteful artwork instead of the usual crap. Oh, and, of course, you can get Punsch, Glühmost and Glühwein there as well!

    at the moment you can go ice skating in front of the Rathaus (city hall) with music, a bit to eat &drink (ie hot tea with alcohol): http://www.viennaicedream.com

    you can also borrow skates there!

    In summer, go visit Museumsquartier (MQ, subway U3 or U2 will bring you there) to hang out, have a beer, dip your feet in the water ... simply have a good time
