Day 21-Kutschkergasse, the Jesuits, and Night Trains

July 19, 2014 Austria

One place I wanted to make sure we showed up at was the Kutschkermarkt on Kutschkergasse (avenue). Here Cory was able to pose in front of the Kutschker 44 restaurant. It wasn't open for us to have lunch.


Our next stop was the Jesuit church. Amazing pillars, art work, and an organ that played on its own but in a way to encourage visitors to move along.



Today the hot weather started. We are used to the 35 Celsius summer times but not with this 88%  humidity. UGH.

Interesting reliefs in the University area. Oh, my aching head. Check out the faces of these men 'holding' up the pillars.


The best  place to eat in Vienna is the Centimeter, found in the University area. Great prices meant for students, and incredible food sold by the ... centimeter and litre.

Time to get to the train station for our overnight train to Venice. After settling in, we enjoyed some sparkling wine while we placed our breakfast order. The sleeper also provided us with slippers, soap, and facecloth, and earplugs. Don was on the top bunk and I guess we create too much hot air, as he found it stifling and couldn't sleep.
