Funny Moments

Toilets

Always a fabulous subject!!!

One such visit  made us laugh . We had finished our guided tour of Vienna and wanted to go so we ventured down into the underground to use their toilets. As we entered a man rushed up to us in the Ladies. He turned out to be the cleaner and took the money for a pee. He then escorted us into the toilets, opened the door for us, ushered us in and closed the door. I thought that he was going to come in and take down my pants for me. It was so funny. Talk about going above and beyond . We could not believe it. He also called us Maam the whole way. It was like being the queen. We had a good laugh. 

Another toilet saga was our trip to Schonbrunn Palace. We were told on the bus not to take backpacks in with us as they were not allowed so we both left ours on the bus and off we went. When inside we wanted to go to the toilet and it dawned on us that we did not have our packs and therefore no money. We met up with a young couple from the boat and told them what we had done. He kindly loaned us some money for a visit and off we went, happy at last. We paid him back that night on the boat. 

When we went to use the toilets at Schonbrunn we pushed on the doors as nobody seemed to be coming out of them. Other people also tried with no success. Finally a local came along pulled on the door which swung wide open and she let us in. Remember pull don't push. 

Another day in Vienna we were in the Albertina Art Gallery and I was wearing down rapidly so draped myself over a nearby statue to hold me up and take the weight off the poor legs. As I slumped over this poor lady statue I looked down and noticed the plaque on the bottom. What was I leaning on? Only a Rodin statue . The shock made me leap off it as though it was made of hot coals. We had a good laugh and hurried out or the room.

One day at breakfast a lady told us a funny story about her dead father who was two hundred kilograms when he died. She told us that he had to be drained for four days so that he could fit in the coffin. Everyone had a chuckle. 


Teddy K. travels the Rhine. 

The two gentlemen in the room opposite did a lot of travel and took along their beanie bear called Teddy K. He went everywhere with them and he is on social media with his travels. He even sat in the lounge on the table and enjoyed himself.
