Day 16 - Vienna (what to do)

Ok started the day off with a nice breakfast and then caught the train to Vienna. Daddy promised free wifi on the train but it didn't work (ha told him so). When we arrived in Vienna we got on the U3 tram/underground (for the first of seven times) and took it to our accommodation which is in a church. The accommodation opened at 3...... It was 1..... Yay two hour to spend with big packs. So we hopped on the U3 again and went back to the train station where we found some lockers. Ok next up we got on the U3 again and took it into the city centre where we took a tram around the edge and hopped off to look at some building. Also we found a food festival (a bit like TASTE) where there was heaps of food (no der).... And guess what..... There was an Australian food stall. Can someone tell me what Australian food is because I don't know. Anyway they were serving kangaroo, steak and prawns and also some other not very Australian combos like mango and something. So after this we made our way via the U3 back to the train station and collected our big packs. Ok then we made our way back to the monastery and got our room. The room is fantastic and the shower is the best we've has all holidays.  Also it's only a block's walk to the food festival so that was where we had dinner. We had aLebanese  kebab, a butter chicken to share and an ice cream each for dessert. Now the torture began...., we took a pointless scenic route back and it took a while. Anyway The bed last night was fantastic if a bit warm. 
Over and out
