Now I had a safe place to leave the BMW, I walked into the center of Vienna. Soon I found a
MacDonald so I bought a milkshake and drank it while looking over the Donau Kanal (the Donau channel).
Then I walked to one of the main tourist attractions of Vienna, the Stephansdom, a very big and
beuatiful church. It was very very crowded and I did not want to get in line to get in so I just took
some pictures from the outside.

From the Stephansdom I walked to the "Hofburg" and the "Volksgarten" and after that
I walked past a lot of interesting buildings.
You can get a ride with a wagon and horse.

AFter hours of walking in Vienna, I realy needed a coffee so I was looking for a nice
place when I saw "Pickwick's cafe bar book- & video store" on the Marc Aurel Strasse 10-12.
All walls were covered with books except one that had a giant video screen with life sports
(tennis) and in the basement they had a videostore. A very nice place and the had a good
cappuccino !

In an art galerie in a street just outside the center, I saw a very old Jawa motorcycle.
I walked in and had a chat with the stepfather of the owner of the bike and the store, an
American called Bill. The owner of the bike and the store is Andreas Reimann.

Until about four in the afternoon, I walked around in the center of Vienna and saw the Mozarthaus,
a lot of street artist and nice buildings, lots of people and I had a cola at a hotdog shop.
At another MacDonald I bought a chickenburger and at a backery I bought a croissant.

After four PM, I went back to Ollern. The last part of the road to Ollern is very nice. From the
hill you have a nice view on the countryside.

Now I'm back in the hotel and I am not to happy. The cafe is closed so I can not buy my dinner here
and in the room next to me is a family with little children that are screeming all the time and the
parents are screeming back and the hotelmowner is not home so I can not ask for another room and I
don't have Wifi in my room........
On CNN I watched the European weather forecast and the comming days they expect rain, thunderstorms
and hard wind in this part of Europe so tommorrow I'll drive North-West to the sunny weather.
