On November 27, A&I caught the train out to Stansted Airport and then flew to Graz, Austria for 3 nights. It was a country neither of had been to, and a cheap flight from England.
We stayed in Hotel Weitzer in the middle of old town.
In the cold weather we braved the funicular up to Schlossberg and its clock tower, wandering up and down along the River Mur, and the Kuntzhaus, a cool modern art museum. The old town had its Christmas markets in full force for people to enjoy during the evening.
Our dining out consisted one night of going to a restaurant without a reservation. The owner let us dine as long as we were out in 30 minutes. We were in Austria, so I had to have schnitzel and spaetzle. We chowed down in the allotted time, and were rewarded with a shot of schnapps before we headed back into the cold.
Graz is a great city, that will need to be explored more another time.
