Navigational ninjas.

We left a rainy Linz and took a train to Vienna Hoofbahn where we managed to find the Underground Station and bought ourselves travel cards for the next few days. Apparently once it is validated nobody ever checks that you have a ticket!
Our apartment is conveniently located right opposite the station and has a panoramic view of the Ferris wheels at Prater, a large amusement park.
We managed to navigate the codes for lock boxes and lifts etc and settled into our spacious lodgings.
After a little rest we walked to see the Hundertwasserhaus and Village, a social housing project, and then caught a tram back to our base.
Hundertwasser, born in 1928, was famous for his vibrant, nature-inspired art and architecture, which rejected straight lines in favor of organic forms and bright colours. His work was also known for its ecological activism and commitment to environmental protection, leading to buildings like the Hundertwasserhaus with its "melody to the feet" floors and rooftop gardens. (Thanks Google.)
Lu cooked a delicious supper which we enjoyed while watching the Fairground begin to light up. Mickey ventured off to meet Mike at the Opera.
Thankfully Lu has an eSim in her phone that has made all our navigating a lot simpler!!Read more
