In a relatively compact historic district like Vienna's inner city, we walk most of the distances involved, mostly to see things, but also to get our 10,000+ steps most every day; at our age, however, walking so much requires resting sooner or later, mostly sooner, and thus our expertise in finding comfortable benches; this day, walking completely across town from the Belvedere to our apartment, we somehow managed to miss several parks and their abundant benches, but, finally, on a lonely street in a somewhat downwardly mobile neighborhood, we spot a nice bench at the attractively landscaped entrance to an apartment building; relaxing there, I look up from my phone and notice a scantily-clad young woman blowing me kisses from a 2nd story window; interesting; it finally occurs to me to look up "laufhaus" on Google Translate; some sort of Comedy Club thing, I wonder; but no, it translates straightforwardly to "whore house"; some workers arrive, one a 48Z, Vicki says, and before things get more complicated, we decide to look for another bench |

My favorites are the Laufhaus and the giant sofa. The sofa reminded me of Edith Ann's (Lily Tomlin) rocking chair on Laugh In.
