Vienna

The day started better than it ended, Drew as usual first to breakfast. A little different plan, first a 30 minute train ride to Tulln, then 40 km into Vienna. Drew was a little negative about the probability of heavy traffic. In fact the ride was fast and no incorrect turns, we had the highest average speed of the trip. The bikes are now parked in the hotel and will be shipped back to Passau, we are checked in and due to go to another of Drew's favorite restaurants. As promised some more photos:These are of the Abbey at Melk.
