Easter Hols Part 4 - Vienna, Austria

7, 8, 9 Apr 2007
The first day in Vienna was just shopping along a long long stretch of road. We started touring on the 2nd day after Pin Xiu arrived to join us at on the first night! It was great to have her around. We went out the whole day, took trains and walked alot, from 9am to 9pm :)


One thing that i will never forget about Vienna was the first meal I had. Pizzas! They were full of meat, the amount of meat on it was alot as compared to all other pizzas we tried. And i was very very hungry after a bad night at the airport.


Subsequently for all the rest of my meals in Vienna, I ate 1 euro MacChicken burger! Haha. Sounds ke lian but I kinda enjoyed the cheapness so much that it didn't really matter to me.

Our fav ice cream stall. 1.70 euros for 3 small scoops.


We kept having troubles going toilet... cause need to pay, about 50 cents euro (finland is 1 euro fyi!) Anyway, here is one toilet that we wanted to enter but didn't. Quite interesting, opera toilet?!

2nd day

The Belvedere

I find some buildings really similar. Vienna is all about taking photos for us... didn't shop or buy as much as we did in amsterdam. Good place for us cause we spent the least money here. haha.. After this, we took an expensive train to Prague.
