milan-venice-udine-vienna (18 hours journey)-(day 5)

today's objective was to go back to vienna....so early morning we are up and pack our stuff in the car.......we went to uncle ijad's place and wish him goodbye and also tell him to take care.....his not well today as he has this allergy.....we hit the road at 830 in the morning.....we went to san siro to see if there are any sourvenirs that we can buy.....but unfortunately there aren't any......

so we decided to go back to vienna...... after some driving about 4 hours, we went to a rest stop to fill up the gas.....my aunt suggest that we hit venice beach...so my dad agreed.... we went to venice which takes us about 3 hours to reach there.......when we arrived at venice beach, the wind was really blowing and it brings us into shivers......we stroll down the town there which reminds me of bondi beach in australia..... as the cloud turns grey, we quickly took pictures and hit off back to our journey......

the next stop for our journey is the town of udine....according to auntie jah, a malaysian who had lived in the europe for almost 30 years, the town is famous for its leather products....unfortunately the rain was pouring down heavily in which it restricts us to go down and visit the place....so once again we hit back to the road.....

during our journey, my mum asked me to accompany my dad coz she says that she needs to take a nap.....since i was doing most of the sleeping on the way to milan, so i guess it is fair for me to accompany my dad......so we talked bout many stuffs......another activity that we did to entertain ourself was counting the tunnels that we've gone through.....we then came to the austrian borders......we stopped at the rest station for our dinner....

after some refreshments about an hour, we also took pictures of the scenery before we went off.....as we continued the journey, out of sudden, my uncle turn into a village....this is according to the GPS system that the road that we are using will direct us to a quicker way.....but i think it was the other way around.....so we entered back the highway bout an hour later as the next turn in to the highway was quite a distance......

about 50km reaching vienna, we saw 2 accidents in which one of 'em, the car was flipped with its tyres on top....gosh......we arrived in vienna around 230 in the morning which brings us about 18hours journey.....

now i am very sleepy and need some sleep.......toodles...
