Down by the Danube River








Early Morning Light
Alte Donau
Old Danube
22nd District

*

The Danube river waters
pass through Vienna in
four river beds.
From West to East, they are called:
The Danube Channel
The Danube,
The New Danube, and
The Old Danube.
Of course, there's also the river Wien.
Lots of water and many bridges.

For a map of Vienna
with its many waterways,
click on the first picture.
The other pictures will reveal
more images of the Danube river

  1. I really like the grays, blues and browns of your opening photo, Marisi. And especially those willow branches in the last one!

  2. Such beautiful reflections in the water.
    Fall approaches a little here - but a few beach days to be savored still.
    Such lovely glimpses of your world.

  3. Sarah,
    thank you! :-)

    Willow,
    and the blue behind the willows is of the Danube! :-)

    Elizabeth,
    I love late August days, and savour them to the fullest! Autumn days are still a full month away, I refuese to think of them just yet.

  5. Mmmm. Those sailing boats look tempting, especially in a fair breeze. So much more peaceful than the noise and smells of an engine room.
