Beautiful lakes and scenery in Austria

Yet Vienna City has been voted the World’s most liveable
Surrounded by scenic countryside that is unbelievable.
So insisted on day trips to experience those places
First stop Hinterstoder where we tied our shoelaces.

Laudachsee & Spechtensee are mountain lakes
Reaching them often results in many muscle aches.
Amazed myself actually venturing in for a swim
The fresh water being best to revitalise sore limbs.

Neusiedersee is famous for the small town of Rust
Watching the storks nesting on the roofs is a must.
Purbach is quaint with a street lined with wine cellars
And Eisenstadt is where the Esterhazy’s were dwellers.

Discovering a sculpture garden at Windon was a surprise
And any of Hundertwasser works you have to scrutinise.
Along with Graz’s art gallery building known as the Alien
Plus the salt mines in Salzkammergut that are subterranean.

Hallstatt is Austria’s beautiful quintessential village
Absorbing it’s vista via boat feels like a pilgrimage.
Viewing decorated skulls in the sacred bone chapel
The cemetery silence broken only by waterfall babble.

After ten weeks here it’s time to farewell Austria
Flying to Greek Kefalonia that’s in the sea of Ionia.
With Sabine, Chris’s cousin and her hubby also Christian
We planned it four years ago, it’s a long awaited vacation.Baca lagi
