Vienna
The next morning, Rissa's childhood friend, Aring, and her brother, who have migrated to Vienna several years ago, brought us to Schronbruun Palace, the imperial summer residence. We skipped the state apartments and just strolled around the vast area surrounding the palace, which was inpired by the Versialles.
We went to Gloriette, a viewing terrace with a spectacular view of the palace.
We then literally lost ourselves in Maze & Labyrinth. It took me a while to get to the end of the maze while the others went at the end of the maze thru the exit.
We had few more hours before our departure to Salzburg so we decided to make a quick visit of Prater, where the popular Giant Ferris Wheel called Riesenrad is. I think we stayed for an hour, 30 minutes of which I spent at the restroom for a mild case of diarrhea. It was a nice way to end my Vienna trip.
