THIS is my journey home

THIS is my journey home. From London through central & western Europe (not to forget the royal wedding!) and onwards to experience South America. If you know of my past travels at all you will realise that this blog is most likely going to be eventful and an interesting read.






No matter how organised......

Vienna

Sigh. This place I love. The Capital of Austria...Vienna. The home of the Hapsburgs there are some amazing buildings in this town and for the first time on this trip too much to see and do in the 4 days I have here.

Luckily I am staying in a busier hostel and managed to meet some new Brazilian friends so on the Saturday we went to an Austrian Beerhouse to meet some locals. The place was full of bar games, I had to move away from the fooseball table after being told that I was cramping the players elbow space...there was also a LOT of rage whenever the opposition scored so best I moved onto the 'Hammer game' where you take it in turns to use the back of the hammer to put a nail in a block of wood....money making gold mine, I think so.

Here is a photo of the museum quarter and of course the obligatory horse drawn carriages for those tourists who aren't travelling on such a tight budget:

I took a day trip to Bratislava and visited the castle plus took a photo of this cool statue in the old town.

The thing I loved most about Vienna? all the coffee shops :-)
