Breitenfelder Kirche, view from the train

Gothic. (Drive by shot) #vienna #iphoneography #wien #igersvienna #architecture

The Breitenfelder Kirche/Church can be seen between the belts Florianigasse and Feldgasse - a very busy street near Vienna's University. It is also one of the many attractions you can see while on board Vienna's U6 trainline.

Nürnberg Wall



Nuremberg's old town in Bavaria, Germany is surrounded by thick walls. Built between 12th and 16th centuries they run for 5 kilometers (about 4 kilometers still standing) around the old town. We were able to go up the fortress during our last visit. These were taken on our way to Fürth, the walled city reminds me of home too; Intramuros in Manila is also a walled city.

Three's a Crowd

Somewhere in Vienna.

Going to the airport via the train makes for perfect drive by shots. I was shooting only the metal chairs, the background surprised me well. That's a graffiti of a train on the wall. ^_^

Taking a rest while driving by


If you travel a lot, chances are you'll get tired halfway through, especially if it's a roadtrip that takes more than 5 hours. This is why travel breaks and car stops, even rooms for rent in an certain area is important. It's not only to have whoever driving the car a chance to go to the toilet or stretch his/her legs, it's also to check on the cars, have them refilled with water, gasoline and what else it needs. It's also to have some snack and if need be, get some sleep. Especially if you travel at night.

It is important to plan when you go on a roadtrip at night. You can't go driving for hours and suddenly plan to stay the night over an inn. At least, try to book one room for rent that is on the way. Ain't it easy nowadays that there are online sites for that? With a click of the mouse you can reserve a room or two to your liking. 

Convenience is the term that most transient accommodations offer. A comfortable bed, an easy breakfast, a safe for belongings and a good and easy bath for a more comfortable drive the next day. On your next trip out, and if you're doing drive bys, make sure to take photos of those inns along the way, you'll never when you'll need them, it is always a good thing to look into your photos for reference of where a certain stop/inn is.

More Napa

In the course of sightseeing around Napa Valley, we run into this private driveway. I was curious, but I obeyed the sign to keep away :)
