Well it was another sleepness night on the train to Vienna from Prague.  We were a little confused about what train we were taking as only the last car was going to Vienna.  Part way through the night  they detached our car and attached it to another train.  The girls got  a sleeper with 3 bunks and a bathroom.  Lonnie had to share a room with two guys from Vietnam.

We arrived in Vienna at 6am.  Not much happening there at that time of the morning.  We dumped our backpacks in some lockers and when to the city center.  Very friendly people here - I was looking at a map and locals kept coming up to me to give directions.  We started our tour of Vienna by taking the tram around the ring road.  We were able to see where many of the important buildings in the city are.  We toured the Hofburg Palce and the Sisi museum.  We learned alot about the Hapsburgs and Empress Elizabeth (Sisi).

We had lunch at Buffet Trzesniewski where they serve finger sandwiches a baby beers/wine.  I enjoyed them but the rest of the crew didn't - they didn't like their salami ground up into mush.  They just picked the wrong kind of sandwiches.
