Central europe - Austria

Was on a train back to the developed world .Heading to Wien (Vienna) needless to say the train arrived exact at 22:03 .Caught the tram and headed to Westbhanhoff station hostel west end which was a short 10 min walk from here.

Well the hostel was nice and clean plus a decent breakfast .But to my misfortune there was a large group of school children staying there as a part of their school trip but nevertheless. Woke up in them morning to take the sights and sounds of the city .

Beleverder garden
Spanish riding school
National museum



All very grand and very beautiful and clean.Vienna was beautiful to the core but somehow i preferred Prague well too organised too clean may be doest do for me on top of that every thing was really expensive so no more drinking games for me .

One thing i observed in Wien is the Glorious long legs,blue eyes and blond haired beautiful women .Talked to quiet few of them in the pretext of asking directions even tough clearly i was not lost :)

Well if u come here u shouldn't miss all the magnificent buildings and the National museum .For a guy who doesn't like visiting museums it was very impressive and spent a best part of half a day there.After more walk and some doner kebab later i ended up in Bar Chelsea

Next day quick breakfast i met a Austrian lady who had a done an epic journey from alaska trough Russia all the way to Ukraine well just using Trains .That's impressive just with a 50 liter backpack and a sleeping bag.

Got a lot of good tips from her and hopefully heading that way in some years .

This last day in Austria was the high lite of my time here .I was seeing the 2 classics of Austria

Schloss belvedere
Schönbrunn Palace






one of Wien's simple gardens and palaces

Both these palaces and gardens where impressive beyond my imagination.This place just ozzes with money and it shows in the kind of building they had .Grand huge and the garden looked out of this world .

Well pictures do more justice than words so have a look urself

From here i went on a trip on the personal front .I had heard about a place where the recycle waste in vienna which is apparently a hugely artistic .Went there out of my interest which was good but nothing worth mentioning i think .

ohh did i tell u i was travelling with a ticket that expired 6 hrs ago all this time !!! sorry didn't realise.Well my last journey i didn't want to take a chance so got a single ticket and a doner kebab
and headed out into the westbhanhoff back to my favorite part - the developing world

Hungary here i come
