Leaving Krakow Poland with a little case of nervousness as we needed to backtrack 90 km on the freeway under Czech construction 😒 We made our way to Vienna on a bright, sunny Saturday. We arrived with limited issues and checked into our Airbnb. It’s a home in a residential area, a nice change from the high rise apartments we’ve been staying at. Easy check in so off we go to explore our new neighborhood! Underground station 10 minutes away with easy City Centre access✔️
We take the owners advice and walk to what he calls the Old Danube. It’s a short walk, great recreation area, swimming, boating, beach activity’s, it’s a happening place and it’s 82 and sunny 
😎 We walk about and see what else there is? A beer garden 😜 It’s sunny and we are in Austria. What’s a couple supposed to do?
Fun night😜🍺 Sunday morning bright and early we walk to the U bahn ( subway) buy our tickets, quick and easy, wonderful U bahn and Tram system here, excellent. Tour director Cindy has a walking tour planed for us in the historic city center. Vienna is a very popular tourist city, 14 million tourists a year, so we get moving!
Vienna is a very, very beautiful city, rich in history and very wealthy, even today. It’s been a center of Culture for hundreds of years and the architecture and buildings represent the wealth of the city. Museums, Opera Halls and concert halls are major sights. Along with unbelievable Catholic Church’s, staggering!
Vienna is a very famous city in the coffee and bakery world. It’s coffee shops are world renowned for stuffy waiters and the Patisseries shops (fine cakes and pastry’s) are world famous here. Dumel, world famous for cake, excellent goods👍
Lots of walking, over 12 miles from tour director Cindy, that’s got to mean beer and schnitzel. We are in Austria 😎👍🍺
Ok, 
Ok let’s take a trip up the lovely Melk Valley. It’s a 1 1/2 drive from Vienna, and it’s famous for white wines and beautiful scenery. You might recognize it from a Viking cruise.
One more day in Vienna, using the U Bahn and trams, which are wonderful in Vienna, we visited Schönbrunn Palace and Gardens.
Belvedere Palace and Gardens. Unbelievable gardens and views.
Then walked and rode the day away. It’s a huge city with sights everywhere, definitely a winner!
Ok, walking/tram tours over, time for the world famous Schweizerhaus, beer garden and restaurant 🍺😎
Great places, very historic, lots to do and see and it’s big enough to hold the crowds, which are huge! Driving to Budapest today with a stop in Bratislava, Slovakia 😳
Ciao Ciao😎🍺👍
