I used to love Vienna, too. Well, I still do, to a certain extent; and I can reach it by train within 3 hours. Well... I could, if our fearless leader hadn't decided that the mundane population should get Sputnik. :(
But you are right; the town was nicer when we were younger. Nowadays, my favourites are St. Pölten, Linz, Graz and Krems and der Donau. I wouldn't mind visiting Kufstein and Salzburg, either, but as we both know, I'm a pariah with my Russian vaccine and wouldn't be allowed in, even if I didn't have Mum to consider.
There's another thing you're right about: little ones do have odd eating patterns nowadays. Meaning: none at all! Today's young mothers have such modern ideas about right nourishment and stuff, it's a wonder that the kids don't grow up having eating disorders, every single one of them. I think it is a typical First World problem. When I was a kid, we were piss-poor and happy to have something — anything — on the table each day. I'm still unsure how Grandma managed to feed us all...
