Get to the Choppa! Austria We Go!

August 1, 2024

Vienna, Austria was ok. Again, we had limited time here but it gave me a “just another old European city” vibe: lots of old buildings and history but no “wow” factor. Nothing that I could not stop staring at and nothing that I was excited to see (re: St. Stephen’s Cathedral was definitely quite beautiful). It is an old sleepy city in a way, where you walk and gawk, eat supper and go to bed early. We don’t want to party like Prague, were not 20, but we also don’t want to be in bed by 7, were not 60…The Schonbrunn Palace and Park was my favourite day: oldest zoo in the world, a nice walk in the gardens, and finished the day in the stainless steel pool for a swim (very interesting…). The Palace itself was nothing special. A few cool monuments on the grounds dating to the Romans but we were too hot to take in any historical information (it was 33C that day). I would not go back. Well maybe when I’m 60…
