April 15th

Viennese subways are very efficient. I got back to the subway station near the hotel quickly. I realized I still had a bit of time before I had to board the bus for our country dinner so I decided to check out the park near the hotel.

The park had several pretty man-made ponds and streams. There were statues of famous composers scattered throughout. Ducks hung out near the pond but pigeons hung out near the people (looking for scraps, no doubt). I found it interesting that in the park proper, dogs were not allowed (they were there anyway) but on the path BESIDE the park next to the canal, there was a "hundezone". In MOST of our parks in Winnipeg, you can take your pet as long as they are on a leash. There are even off leash parks specifically for dogs. That's where Lucy, Ginger and I hang out all the time.

On my way back into the hotel, I saw my BMW dream car again. I had my International Drivers License with me. I should have used it!!
