Wandering Europe
Well too many people had said good things about vienna for me to miss it.....so i stayed.....found a hostel very close to the train station and it was like dorm rooms for students who were off for summer.....well they had fridges and phones and it was quite nice....the only negative in my case was the lack of a bed....but the lack of a bed saved me 12 euros so i should nto complain....as i arrived there was a word traveler just leaving....he had been traveling for 11 months and was still going....it was intresting cause he talked a lot about home and how he wanted to finish but he had noi intentions in doing so....anyway well yeh we chatted about stratigies for traveling cheap and luight ect and he took off....i showered and then wanted to see the town a bit....i saw the town hall and the two churches and i tried to find mozarts house but could not locate it prior to 6 closing time.....also saw a aquarium and zoo type deal......it was in this huge 9 story builing and on the outside the entire building was covered with rock climbing grips with 3 setups per side.....anyway....inside it is like most aquariums and nothign is in english but there is plenty for me to see being that i llove the discovery channel and this was like a live feed of the discovery channel.....one thing i always like about it was that they would start talking about elephants and by the end of the show you would be in the sea talking sharks.....the transitions were always so good.......so yeh i was loving this but then i come to this door leading to outside.....there was a bunch of bird plaques so i am thinking bird sactuary......well i go in and they have like an entire rainforest manipulated on floor number 5 and 6 ......it was insane.....not huge but really well done....and all the animals are completly out in the open....nothing holding back for them attacking you.....i wasnt too worried besides maybe a bird letting loose and maybe getting shat on but eh.......until i see this monkey and it is definatly not caged up.....well there is a tourist petting it.....and it is climbing all ovber near people....it just seemed so not rigtht.......i almost touched him too but he looked a bit too much like the cute little monkey in outbreak so i ventured onward.....well then i went back to the room for my little phone escapades and it seems as though i wasnt nearly as loved as i thought i was.....even my mom came up with some excuse like......"i was working"...haha jk....i think i may have ended up talking to someone from harwinton anyway if i recalled properly....then to bed with me....
so next day i kinda had a sllower start to the morning with packing my things but then i managed to make it to the freud museum which was intresting....i though it would be or at least have some of his lifes works but it was more just a timeline of his life....intresting none the less.....then i could pushed it and tried to see the mozart house but instead i decided on a cafe which helga said are great in vienna and that it was......had a great mozz and tomato sandwich along with cafe au lait (X2).....good stuff......then went to hit up the 345 train to budapest.....well i ahd already bought the tix that morning which i was gonna use a eurorail day for but they had a special on it....so i couldnt use the railpass with such a special on.....well i coulda but it would such a waste.....and i was like hummmm i would rather have an extra day then use it ineffiencetly now.....i hear norway and sweeden are expensive so i will be using it more up there.....so i had bought the ticket with cash seeing as how it was over half off........ok no more vienna please see hungry for more....haha
