We were in Vienna Italy so we did not get the full effect. Saw clips on the TV and originally thought it was a movie. Desk clerk had a sign out stating condolences sympathies and support to all Americans. Went to dinner at Harry’s Bar and he brought the entire kitchen and wait staff out to offer sympathy. Tried to fly out the next day and could not. Airport was patrolled by Army with automatic weapons. I checked carefully everyone getting on the plane. It seemed that no foreigners were allowed on the flight. Thorough custom check in NY.
