Tourist Toytown

Vienna

If there's one word to describe this city, it's grand. The buildings are ornate and imposing, the roads wide and the people apparently overflowing with wealth. Men in white suits sip their expensive coffees and puff on huge cigars while women dripping with jewellery look at the boutiques. It's also full of big spending tourists who are being led around the place in ridiculous carriages by local men in absurd outfits. Quite a contrast from Bosnia, I can tell you.

No sign of Midge Ure yet though.

Hi mum

I've mislaid your email address somewhere... Rayne gets to Sweden on Wednesday, should be at Karlshamn about 1.30ish.

I'm planning on travelling up from Berlin on Monday, might not get to Karlshamn until 11pm though because of the trains, if that's too late I can stay in Copenhagen on Monday night and come up on Tuesday.
