• Swan Lake

    October 3, 2025 in Austria ⋅ 🌙 8 °C

The very pretty ride around a few more meanders was quite slow as we kept stopping to try and photograph the swans who were all enjoying their breakfast. We had another ferry ride and strangely the "cash only" 🤔 price seems to increase as you move downstream.
    We found a sunny spot for a little picnic lunch and a snooze for Mickey.
