Bus Trip
Vienna, Austria
15.11.2011 - 15.11.2011
Got up early for a day tour out of the hotel. I thought it was expensive but thought it might be a good way to introduce the city.
It ended up being a bus tour, which kinda sucked. Thought the last half of it was a walk through a palace at least.
Afterwards I went out to see if I could see another museum, palace or church before they closed. I was going to a palace when I passed a Museum of Natural History, which is supposed to be good. I passed it knowing I could go back the next day. Ended up getting lost without finding the palace. Then when I went back to the museum I passed but wasn't able to back track properly.
I ended up just randomly walking through the streets, as I was in an area where a lot of the stuff is packed together anyway. Basically having my own walking tour. I passed several impressive buildings, including a cathedral.
For tea I went to a place famous for doing a good schnitzel. It was really good. I thought it was weird when it came out plain, though with a side dish of salad, without any adornment. But the taste and texture was more than good enough by itself.
Not much else has happened. I was going to take a cruise down the Danube tomorrow, but something on the internet warned that it was bad. The day cruises of the Danube at least since there isn't mush to see.
If I'd have known, I'd have taken a cruise from Czech to Vienna, but didn't know they were linked via cruises until looking at cruises here.
So tomorrow I might just tour as many places that I now know of before taking a stroll down the side of the Danube when the day is almost over.
