4. she's in a major museum in Vienna
When I was there years ago I couldn't find her. So I asked an attendant where to find her. He took me over to a display case, showed me the magnifying glass, and said 'Hier ist sie.'

I was so stunned; I hadn't realized she is so small.

One of my great European travel memories.
