Interrail : pass day 5

The Ankeruhr clock, dating from 1914

Time to move on from Venice after three wonderful days, busy even in late March and before Easter. We were up in time to take the longer vaporetto line 1 through the Grand Canal to Santa Lucia station for the 09:56 railjet to Vienna. This was the only time the ticket inspector asked to see our reservations, a couple of other travellers in the coach had to buy them from her. Other than the Bernina, this was the most scenic journey, due in at 17:36 but about 20 minutes late.

We stayed again at Prize by Radisson Vienna City, in Karl-Popper-Straße close to the station at € 371 for two rooms for two nights.

Distance walked: 3.51 miles, Train miles: 370 (596 km)

Sunday was my birthday, we spent it with one of Christine’s Austrian relatives, walking around and visiting cafes.

Distance walked: 6.4 miles
