Vienna, AT

August 16, 2019 to August 18, 2019

After 2 and a half days of intense cycling on the Donau Radweg, I was finally in Vienna.

At the Schönbrunn Palace, I managed to get a ticket for specific time, later that afternoon. So I had 3 hours to walk in the gardens and just relax.

At the designated time, I went to the turnstile. There was a long queue, but I bypassed them all. The guy at the front was puzzled how I could do that. But I showed him that I was on time and he was 3 minutes too early. A good system, but I guess people are just so used to queuing.

This lake next to the Danube is used for row boat racing

Another ferry that only uses water power

And free air. This chart shows correct wheel pressure for each wheel width

I almost ran over this snake. It wasn't in a hurry, so I had time to stop and take a photo

Göttwieg Abbey is very imposing on this hill

The Traisen river was so clean, I just had to go for a swim

A music concert in Tulln (Drew Sarich & das Endwerk Orchestra)

They still have payphones in Austria and most of them still work!

Mozart was buried somewhere in this cemetery, but the location was never marked properly. This memorial is in honour of the composer.

Today's ride: 342 km (212 miles)
Total: 4,841 km (3,006 miles)
