Our first day was really beautiful and the weather was gorgeous! My sister’s new house is located at the edge of Danube Park. In that park is one of the famous landmarks of Vienna: The Danube Tower

This is the view right from my sister’s house.
After a long breakfast, we walked through the park and also passed the tower. That tower is the tallest building in Vienna with 252 meters. Here some pics of park and tower:







Here you can see the place of the UNO in Vienna, called the UNO City:
After our walk through the park, we went to a little river which is called the Old Danube. That is a branch of the river Danube which is quieter. There we rented a boat and drove around for a bit:




It has been a lovely day and in 1 1/2 hours, we are having a barbecue at my sister’s 😁
Enjoy the rest of your day!

There are many like this around here but that style is also very popular where I live and actually basically in Central Europe! Oh yes, it is green at this part of the city. It is more in the recreation zone. Of course there are other parts too which look like a real city. So she was really lucky with this place.
