I had to post twice today to make up for the lack of Wifi yesterday. We traveled by a three hour train today to get to Vienna, Austria! We had a lot more time to get to the train today and we didn't get lost. When we found our seats we had our own compartment like in Harry Potter! It was really fun. We watched the Austrian countryside zoom by and went through lots of ear-popping tunnels.
Once we got to the station we took the U-bahns again to get to the street our hotel is on. We have really figured out the subway system and it is really easy once you get the hang of it. Our hotel is really cool! We have a giant triple room for the three of us with a little kitchen and actual metal keys to get into the room.
After we dropped our stuff off it was about 1pm and we headed to the Naschmarkt. We passed many cool buildings and museums on the way there. Lots of people ride bikes everywhere and we see cute dogs every time we look up! We grabbed some classic Austrian Wiener Schnitzel for lunch and I got chicken this time instead of pork and it was really tender! After we re-energized we walked along the market and enjoyed the bright fruits and vegetables and all the smells of spices. There were meats, cheeses, fish, pastries, and a flea market. Anne and I bought four different kinds of fruit to take back to the room and enjoy. It is so delicious and fresh! We washed it and enjoyed the European gems of cherries, grapes, strawberries, and nectarines.
Mark is taking his late afternoon nap again haha and then we will head to dinner somewhere. Tomorrow we are going to go the main area of the city where Hofburg Palace is and the Lipizzaner Stallions!
Ta ta for now!
