Anyway, a German class project made us take a couple of photos to compare the difference between certain scenes in Singapore and Vienna, so I thought I'll share some of them here. Hope it's interesting!
Transport
Guess where this is? Inside a tram. And what's that bunch of black, messy hair? A DOG. Dogs are really a big thing in Vienna - they require the equivalent of a child's ticket on public transport! There're dogs playing on the snow, dogs in restaurants, dogs everywhere. I can't imagine seeing dogs in shopping malls back home. (OH they're really well-behaved here. And muzzled.)
Caught ya red-handed! No lah, everyone can eat and drink openly in buses, trams and trains. I'm going to slurp on soup in a tram one day and make everyone hungry. haha.
Can you find such a scene ever back home? Notice the empty seats. I still recall - certainly not with fondness - the madly jam packed trains on our sunny island. Yikes.
They have these in place of trishaws here in Vienna. 50 Euros for an hour! Youch.
Okay, enough of transport. There are more interesting things in life. Like SNOW!!!
Gosh I sound like a deprived Singaporean. Which I am. haha.
SNOW
Check out that huge iceberg!!!
This is how deep the snow is...
Shoveling snow - even with a snow plough - is tough work!
Viennese out of the city are really warm and friendly, compared to their city counterparts. The guy behind me looked thrilled at letting me play with his machine, seeing the 6-year-old excitement of a deprived Singaporean. hah
Lounging in the snow.
Oh, we visited this really warm and cosy house in the midst of the snow. Really feels like a movie - with pretty houses clad in snow outside, and the warm orange glow of respite inside.
A really nice country-side style place we found for dinner. Never expected this in Vienna, thought only Australia! haha.
