「日本人の知らない日本語」 Mangaka Hebizô and teacher Umino in Vienna - Part Two

Vienna Sightseeing with Hebizô and Umino
On the Saturday, a group of five students of Japanese Language Division of University of Vienna went for sightseeing with Hebizô and Umino.
First we met at their hotel and went to Schloß Schönbrunn. We really really had luck, because of the beautiful weather (only rainy days before...), but unfortunatelly there were so many people at Schloß Schönbrunn, who wanted to visit the castle (and not the park!). So we would have to wait for about 3 hours to get inside the castle. That plan was skipped and we took a little walk through the park and went to the Gloriette, were we had some ice cream. Yummy!
Hebizô and Umino are interested in flea markets and so we went to Naschmarkt, which was really really crowed! They were impressed by the flea market and the food market at Naschmarkt and we also visited Cha-no-Ma, a Japanese tea shop, and Nipponya, a Japanese supermarket. Already quite hungry, we were looking for a nice place for lunch...
but something embarrasing happend...

I am still really angry and can't believe it. We left the Naschmarkt and went to Karlsplatz, between Karlsplatz and the Technical University is a restaurant/bar/whatever place (now I know it's somehow called Kunsthaus or Kunsthalle, still don't know it exactly). We luckly found seats for all of us, but it wasn't in the shadow, so it was quite hot. Hebizô and Umino were busy signing their mangas for one of our students who had to left the group earlier and so we didn't notice at first that we were waiting for about 20 minutes and no waitress came. All the time in the blazing sun. We were all tired, hungry and thirsty, and so Hebizô took a sip of her waterbottle, suddenly the waitress came and screamed at us to leave the place, because we drink our own drinks. The same waitress came along about 2 or 3 times, but did not take our orders. Two of my friends became very angry, and while I left the restaurant/bar/whateveryshittyplacethismightbe with Hebizô and Umino and explained them the situation, my friends talked to the restaurants' owner (who just said "we can't do anything, sorry hey.." or something like that). So we, five people, all tired, hungry and thirsty, switched the place and went to Figlmüller (I think), a famous place for Schnitzel.
And something strange happend...
At Figlmüller, the service was the exact opposite!! All the way to Figlmüller, my two friends and I were busy to apology to Hebizô and Umino for the incident (and Hebizô and Umino were busy to apology, because they thought it was their own fault) and we declared proudly, that we are not Viennese but Styrian, Upper-Austrians or Vorarlbergers. :D
So, back to Figlmüller! The waiter was really really kind and funny, the food was delicious, many other tourists (also Japanese) came and the Schnitzel were damned big!
After that big meal and a short coffee, Hebizô and Umino wanted to see the Mozartwohnung (but didn't enter) and visited Stephansdom. Then we went to the Hofburg and stopped at Demel for a short coffee & cake brake.
We really talked a lot, about various things, Hebizô showed me her pictures from Belgium and so on and I was really really impressed that the whole day went out to be that fantastic and beautiful (beside the little embarrassing incident...:/)! I really like talking mit Hebizô and Umino but also the talking with my friends. ^^
It was an interesting and wonderful day! Hopefully I can meet Hebizô and Umino again (in Vienna or in Japan) and I'm looking forward for the signed Comic Essays!
