We all had a sleep in and then Ella and Angus got up to date with their journal writing. After a busy few days, they were a little bit behind.
When we asked Ella and Angus what they would like to do, they both suggested that they'd like to go back to the Prater amusement park. They loved the rollercoaster on our first visit on the day we arrived, so it was only fair to take them back again.
To get to the Prater, we walked along the Danube Cannal, an off-shoot of the main river, which was lovely and peaceful. Nice to have some greenery amongst the busy city.
When we got to the Prater, we walked around to work out which rides we wanted to go on. The winners were the dodgem cars, dizzy mouse and the flying carousel. Ella and Angus loved them all. By default, Clint and I did too!
After some fun, it was time for lunch. We thought that a progressive lunch through the the city could be fun. First up, a kaiserwurst, a cheese and pork sausage in a roll with sauce. Ella gave it the thumbs up!
I was keen to try some horse meat, so googled where I could find it. Next stop, the pfeft leberkase, essentially meat loaf in a roll with mustard. Absolutely delicious!
Full of yummy food, we then went shopping and bought some clothes for ourselves. No presents this time.
Along the way, we walked past the Palais Coburg, a very expensive hotel that was originally a palace owned by various kings of Austria, Germany and Hungary. It was amazing and certainly much more fancy than anything in our neck of Coburg.
After all the shopping, we stopped at the park on the way home for a play and a cold drink.
Tonight we decided to go out for dinner to another local Viennese restaurant. The schnitzel was huge, but delicious. And so was the beef goulash, chicken salad and meat pancakes. We couldn't finish everything, so tomorrow night's dinner is sorted!
