Day 9

Started off at 7:30 and had a varied breakfast before walking to the station. 

Vienna is filled with beautiful buildings and many swifties. This walk to the train station had many choruses of ‘Vienna’ by Billy Joel.

The spanish riding was gorgeous and inspiration for many photos. 

We watched the classic viennese horses as well as having the honour of watching some beautiful grey from elsewhere. 

Both the horses and the architecture were stunning. 

After this we walked to the museum of illusions which was very busy, like the beautiful main city streets.

The museum was filled with really cool but trippy illusions, like this one modelled by Steph and Tilly. 

This kaleidoscope illusion was really cool (modelled by Tilly)

The museum was also very aesthetic leading to plenty of cute pictures for the blog. 

This illusion made Tilly look even shorter than she already was which was previously thought impossible.

After this we enjoyed Starbucks, a McDonalds and free time where we escaped the huge hoard of swifties in the market square.

We also bumped into some vaguely familiar people. 

After this we headed to the ferris wheel and the theme park Prarter which was fun but expensive.

Inside the ferris wheel there was a small museum that went ignored but not unappreciated due to its pretty ceiling and aesthetic carts.

Prater fit right in with Vienna even the theme park buildings were gorgeous.

The view from the ferris wheel was worth the humid heat of the car.

We headed from pratter straight to dinner at the nachtmarkt.

Here we got 100% not authentic Viennese food, gnocchi alla sorrentino.

Today was a great day but feels like the trip has gone far too quick, but can’t wait for tomorrow.

Until next time
