The tour in Vienna (4) 维也纳之旅(四)

Naschmarkt 纳旭市场

sunny 14 °C

Today was the last day in Vienna. This morning, I went to China embassy to add my married name in my passport. Everything was very smooth, and I was told that I could get my passport back at 2pm. Super!

今天是维也纳之旅的最后一天。一大早,我就去中国使馆办理护照加注婚后名,一切都很顺利,使馆的人通知我下午2点就可以过来领取护照,太棒了!

So before 2pm, we went to the Naschmarkt to take lunch. The Naschmarkt is Vienna's most popular market, and it has existed since the 16th century. Acutually last year, we had already been there, but this time we came back again, because my honey missed the palatschinken in the Naschmarkt so much, hehe!

因此在下午2点之前,我们跑去纳旭市场吃午餐。纳旭市场是维也纳最为热闹的集市,早在16世纪就已经存在了。其实去年我们已经来过这里,只是这次又来了,因为我老公非常想念那里的薄煎饼,呵呵!

100_3313.jpg

This was the palatschinken which I ordered...

这是我点的薄煎饼……

100_3317.jpg

...and this one was my honey's.

……这是我老公点的。

100_3314.jpg

Start eating...

开始吃啦……

100_33211.jpg

... yummy yummy!

……好吃极啦!

100_3324.jpg

After lunch, we went shopping. I found the goods in the Naschmark Asian shop was much more cheaper than the ones in Linz. Besides, people also could buy the fresh vegetables, fruits, seafood, meats and so on in the Naschmarkt, they were much more cheaper than in the supermarket.

餐后,我们就在纳旭市场里购物。我发现这里亚洲商店所卖的东西比林茨卖的还要便宜得多。此外,人们还可以在这里买到新鲜的蔬菜、水果、海鲜、肉类等,这些东西都比超市里卖得便宜。

100_3325.jpg

There were many small restaurants in the Naschmark, including the food from Austria, China, Japan, Turkey and so on. As it was one of the first warm days after winter, many people liked eating outside.

在纳旭市场里,有许多来自不同国家的各式小餐馆,包括奥地利本土菜肴、中餐、日本料理、土耳其小吃等等。在这样一个过冬以后迎来的温暖天气里,人们都喜欢在室外就餐。

100_3327.jpg

After shopping, it was the time for us to China embassy. I got my passport back immediately, and then we drove back home directly.

购物完毕,正好到了该去中国使馆的时间。我很快地拿到护照,然后我们就直接驾车打道回府。

The tour in Vienna (3) 维也纳之旅(三)

Imperial Crypt and Prater 皇家墓穴和普拉特公园

sunny 17 °C

Today the weather was perfect, we decided to do some exercises in the Prater, because it was a very big park, some were amusement areas, some were natural areas, if you wanted to visit the whole park, it should take at least 2 hours to finish it, it was a good chance for us to do some walking exercises, I meant, the main goal for us was to do some exersises, but not to play in the amusement areas.

今天天气好得不得了,我们决定到普拉特公园锻炼身体,因为这个公园特别大,一部分是游乐园区,一部分是自然景区,如果要走完整个公园,至少需要2个小时,所以这正好给我们步行锻炼提供了良好机会,也就是说,我们此行目的在于锻炼身体,而非到游乐园游玩。

But before we went to the Prater, we took a short visit in the Imperial Crypt. Since 1633 the Imperial Crypt in Vienna has been the principal place of entombment for the Habsburg dynasty, hereditary Emperors of the Holy Roman Empire, and their descendants. It is one of the top tourist attractions in Vienna.

不过在去普拉特公园之前,我们到皇家墓穴进行简短的参观。自1633年起,维也纳的皇家墓穴成为安葬哈普斯堡皇室、神圣罗马帝国世袭国王以及他们后代子孙的主要场所。该墓穴是维也纳最吸引人的旅游景点之一。

100_32531.jpg

After visiting the Imperial Crypt, we went to the Prater.

参观完皇家墓穴后,我们来到了普拉特公园。

This is the ferris wheel, it is at the entrance of the Prater. It is one of the earliest Ferris wheels, erected in 1897. We would come back to take it after hiking.

这是位于普拉特公园入口处的摩天轮,它建于1897年,是世界上最早的摩天轮之一。等我们步行走完整个公园后再回来这里玩摩天轮。

100_3254.jpg

It took us one hour to arrive here. There were two restaurants...

我们走了一个小时来到此处。这里有2家餐馆……

100_32561.jpg

...we chose this one to take lunch.

……我们选择了这家吃午餐。

There were too many people in this restaurant, when we arrived there, there were not empty seats for us, so we had to wait. But we were still a little lucky, only waited for about 10 minutes to get the seats.

这家餐馆挤满了人,当我们到那的时侯,已经没有空位了,所以只得排队等候。不过我们还是有点幸运,只等了10分钟左右就占到位置了。

The restaurant had so good business, and the waiters were very busy. After we ordered the food, it took us more than one hour to get them, oh my god, waited too long time! But the worse thing was that the food tasted just so so, and they used the big plates with a little food, completely was not enough to be full. How disappoined we were!!! Then I had to order some dessert, because I was still not full, but it took us more than half hour to get the waiter coming. Finally, we left the restaurant with the bad mood.

该餐馆生意非常好,服务生也是忙个不停。我们点了菜之后,竟然等了一个多小时才上菜,天啊,等得太久了!但更糟的是,这里的食物味道很一般,而且他们用最大盘子装最少的食物,太抠门了,完全不够让人吃饱。我们对此很失望!后来我不得不再点一道甜点,因为我的肚子还没填饱,可是我们又等了半个多小时才等到服务生的到来!最后,我们极不愉快地离开了这家餐馆。

100_3257.jpg

It took us about one hour to come to the amusement area of the Prater. There were many interesting games, but I was pregnant, and could not play them.

随后我们又走了一个多小时回到了普拉特公园的游乐园区。这里有好多有趣的游乐项目,只可惜我怀有身孕,无法尽兴!

Now we came back to the ferris wheel, it ran slowly, so I could take it.

此刻我们回到了摩天轮,由于这个摩天轮旋转得很慢,所以适合我这个孕妇玩。

100_3280.jpg

In the small room of the ferris wheel, through the windows, we could see the night scenery of the Prater and Vienna.

离开普拉特公园后,也到我们该吃晚餐的时侯了。我们去了一家非常特殊的餐馆,这是一家拥有至少100年历史的老餐馆……

Dannie is pregnant too, but 5 weeks more than me, now it is 33 weeks. Before we came to Vienna, she recommended us to eat famous spareribs, so we made the appointment to take dinner together with our husbands (actually her husband's cousin also came with them).

丹妮也怀孕了,比我早5周,现在是33周了。在我们来维也纳之前,她就推荐我们去吃有名的排骨餐,所以我们就约定好,带上各自的老公一起共进晚餐(事实上,她老公的表妹也一同前往)。

The dinner was very delicious, but my honey and me were not very hungry, because we just finished lunch 4 hours before. Finally we had to ask the waiter to pack the remaining food and took it back to the hotel.

晚餐很丰盛,只可惜我们小俩口儿都不饿,因为4个小时前我们才吃过午餐。最后只得让服务员帮我们把吃剩下的排骨打包带回酒店。

餐后,我们邀请丹妮他们三人一起去参观多瑙塔,他们很乐意地答应了,因为他们也都从未去过那里,也想坐在旋转餐厅里观赏美丽的维也纳夜景。

Just arrived at the first night 抵达的第一个晚上

This afternoon, about 5pm, we drove to Vienna after my honey finished working. It took us 2 hours to arrive the destination. We carried our luggages into the hotel immediately, and then went to have dinner.

我们最初计划是去一家名叫维也纳森林的餐馆吃著名的烤鸡,因为去年我们去这家餐馆的时侯,那的美食给我们留下很深的印象。但是今天晚上,我有些疲劳,只想在酒店附近找家餐馆就餐。

餐后,我们直接回到酒店。这是一家四星级酒店,套房相当宽敞,而且干净整洁。由于现在是旅游淡季,所以价格很便宜,3个晚上每人只需144欧元。
