So when David decides to write a blog for Broadwayworld while living in Vienna for a month, he doesn't anticipate that finding a library will be difficult, because it is, or finding wifi that matter.

That's right, there is no laptop when RyanAir (a cheap European airline) had the strictest weight restrictions imaginable.
