Wednesday (Temp. -4deg. No snow!) Mum rang for Christmas at 8am waking us up. Spoke to Mum, Dad, Shane, Michelle, A. Glor, Leon, Grant, Nan & Bevan. After breakfast Greg & Trish rang. Went for walk at 10am to Stadtpark, beautiful snowy & ice-covered lake. Not many people out at first but lots of people around St Stephen's Cathedral & a few souvenir shops open. Bought another bust of Beethoven. Had a coffee at McDonald's . Lovely day out, no crowds, very pleasant. Back to hotel at 1pm. Made our own lunch, cheese & ham & salami rolls. Used computer in lobby to check email, 2Euro60 for 20mins. Sat in lobby & had a drink, entertained by nosy South African woman. Back to room for beer, weird peanut chips & rolls again for dinner. MERRY CHRISTMAS.
