Dinner

We went to the Gmoa Keller which is close to the hotel. We are all a bit tired and it is traditional food and serves good wines according to our book. Boxes ticked. We have difficulty in getting a table but it gets sorted out. The menu arrives, oh dear we do not have a clue what is what. It is fairly extensive - we find an English bit at the back but there is limited choice. The waiter has little or no English but keeps telling us he has a good goose. It became known as the many legged goose as they seemed to be mainly serving goose legs that night. However we had Weiner Schnitzels served with traditional Potato salad. I had lamb, it was very good. For Dessert I had Apple Strudel which was excellent. I made a point of trying as many strudels whilst in Vienna, as I could just to mark them out of 10. This was the best one of the whole holiday. We drank some red wine which was recommend by Mein Herr the waiter.

On getting back to the hotel we were dismayed to find our clothes & hair stank like we had been infused with Chinese food, our room was red hot & I did not get much sleep. Ian woke me at 7.18 to get me out of bed as we were meeting up at 8 for breakfast. Noooooooo. But after a good hot shower I was ready to go.
