紅牛含可卡因

台灣當局驗出奧地利進口的紅牛能量飲料含毒品成分可卡因，昨下令全面回收及禁售，並扣查一萬七千箱紅牛產品。當地執 法官員指，雖然「紅牛可樂」（Red Bull Cola）內只含微量可卡因，無損身體健康，但由於可卡因屬一級毒品，故不可銷售，否則會被視作販毒懲處。反之，香港保安局早已獲悉外國驗出紅牛飲料含可 卡因，卻一直坐視不理，令紅牛產品連日來仍可在市面發售，延至昨日才勸喻停售。不過，本港市面昨日仍有出售紅牛飲料，有禁毒委員炮轟港府禁毒不力，認為： 「飲品含有可卡因便不應在市面出售」。

價錢合理奧地利菜

一位blog友依家旅行緊,問我維也納邊度有平嘅奧地利菜食.

平嘅餐廳5, 6 euro一個餐(唔包嘢飲), 但係係喺住宅區. 喺遊客區價錢合理(唔可以話平)嘅, 可以考慮呢兩間.

Gasthaus Reinthaler喺市中心,Österreichisches Theatermuseum附近. 但係呢間嘢只係星期一至五營業.

地址Gluckgasse 5

集郵/ Stamp collecting

我另一嗜好係集郵, 喺歌劇院開放日有首日封出,當然買咗個留念.

睇真啲有啲古怪(對港人而言), 我去嗰日係24號,其中個chop係25號架. 喺呢度係好正常架.

One of my hobbies is stamp collecting.  On the open day of the opera house, there was a first day cover on sale.  Of course, I bought one.

When you look carefully at the cover, it's strange (for HK people).  The open day was on the 24th but it was stamped 25th.  It is very common in Austria

歌劇院開放日2

第一次踏上個舞台,發咗一陣明星夢.繼續四維貢.

歌劇院開放日1

今日係維也納歌劇院Wiener Staatsoper140週年. 噚日搞咗個開放日,憑票入場.

忙住周圍去(3) – Asian Village

Asian Village係 Wiener Festwochen其中一項活動. 有亞洲黎嘅藝術家表演. 而我就冇咁高層次欣賞藝術. 吸引我嘅係佢嘅街頭美食.

忙住周圍去(2) – Wien für Dich

今日忙住周圍去(1) – Votivkirche Kritag

喺市中心呢間Votivkirche今年係130週年紀念. 呢個週末搞咗個同宗教冇關嘅market, 衫褲鞋襪,飲飲食食,CD,植物都有得賣. 但係冇乜人行.

乾曬場

之前介紹嘅 Sand in the city齋乾曬,好多blog友話有埋泳池會好啲.

其實市中心有幾個呢啲乾曬場,沿住多瑙運河(多瑙河河水嘅運河),主要係吧. 雖然唔可以游水, 但係有河水睇吓都好過冇.

回到中世紀

今日係德,奧,瑞嘅公眾假期. 明明聽日Friday唔係假期, 但係電視,收音機成日講呢個係long weekend.. 可想而知大部份嘅私人公司都自己放假. 好似唔想做咁.

Today is a public holiday in German, Austria and Switzerland.  Tomorrow is a working day but in the media they always say it is a long weekend.  So, see, most of the companies just arrange their own long weekend.

因為呢個非official long weekend, Böhmischer Prater呢個兒童遊樂場今日起搞咗個以中世紀為主題嘅活動.

Because of this unofficial long weekend, Böhmischer Prater, a fairground for kids, have organised some activities with middle ages as the theme.

去到啱啱有巡遊.

When I arrived, there was a parade.

牛牛能量飲料

奧地利有兩個品牌大家都會認識. 一個係天鵝牌水晶. 呢個可能太貴,未必個個都買.

另一個平民啲嘅品牌就係呢隻牛牛能量飲料. 佢係世界百大品牌黎架.

但係我聽過話有啲地方禁咗冇得賣喎

喺奧地利家鄉,除咗普通味,仲有小甜同可樂味添.

廁紙新発売

乜都貪新鮮嘅我,見到包裝印咗“New”, “Neu”, “新発売“…都會買黎試. 可能我天生係白老鼠.

好似今日買咗新出嘅Tempo廁紙. 紙巾用得多, 廁紙真係第一次見.

8號睇yahoo見美國出咗Simpsons郵票啊!好想好想擁有.點算好呢?叫blog友幫我買?可能太遲播. 突然諗起“依悲“,成幾年冇log in都仲work喎.

維也納港男見報

大家記唔記得我最近去咗 種葡萄呀? 噚日睇報紙(正確小小係揭報紙,因為唔識睇),發現維也納港男見報呀.

喺幅相度好細粒, 今次唔使畫面具俾自己lu.

Life Ball 2009

講番禮拜六,唔知係咪要播Life Ball所以冇直播 Eurovision. 話晒Life Ball係奧地利嘅盛事,無可厚非.

轉播Eurovision好失望

歐洲歌唱大賽小提琴手奪魁

【本報綜合報道】一年一度的歐洲歌唱大賽上周六晚在俄羅斯莫斯科舉行，今屆冠軍是挪威小提琴手雷巴克，憑一曲自創民謠，又唱又跳，贏盡觀眾和評判讚賞，打敗二十四名對手，得到比賽舉辦五十三年以來最高的分數。
自創民謠《童話》53年最高分

Oberlaa溫泉

奧地利有大大小小嘅溫泉. 而維也納都有一個,就係喺市郊嘅Oberlaa.

There are many springs in Austria and there is one in Vienna.  It is in the rural area called Oberlaa.

今日就去咗嗰度hea喇.

Today I came here.

Sand in the City

今日落雨.氣溫得番10度. 要摷翻啲厚衫出黎.

Today was a rainy day.  The temp. went down to 10C.  I had to wear my jacket when I went out.

依家天氣咁差唯有睇番好天時嘅相,望梅止渴. 希望聽日天氣好啲啦.

Let's look at some sunny pics instead.  Hope the weather is nicer tomorrow.

好! 今次介紹沙灘. 但係奧地利冇海嘅播!

OK, I'm going to talk about a beach.  But there is no sea in Austria!

係, 真係冇, 啲人要去沙灘通常會去意大利,土耳其,突尼斯等. 唔想去咁遠. 去人造沙灘啦.  每年夏天維也納市中心嘅露天溜冰場會變成一個旱沙灘Sand in the City.

Of course, there isn't any.  When Austrian want to go to the beaches, they usually travel to Italy, Turkey, Tunesia and so on.  If you don't want to travel so far, you can go to the artifical beaches.

Every year the outdoor ice skating rink in Vienna city centre is turned into a dry beach "Sand in the City".

Simpsons版20Q

大家有冇玩過20Q呢個玩具呀?佢會喺20條問題後估到你諗乜.

Has everyone played with the toy 20Q before? It can read your mind after 20 questions.

最近喺 * “亞媽信“購物網站買咗個Simpsons版.

Recently I have bought this Simpsons version on * "amah's son" website.

種葡萄

噚日出席咗Schloß Schönbrunn Wienwein (Vienna wine) 種葡萄樹嘅活動.

主辦單位話文獻記載200年前Schönbrunn呢個皇宮有葡萄園. 為咗推廣旅遊同維也納產葡萄酒, 佢哋就喺原址種番葡萄.

Karüssellorgel @ Böhmischen Prater

噚日原先有兩度地方去.因為錢銀關係淨係去咗一度.

首先講吓呢個奇景. 禮拜日朝早9點幾我屋企呢度只有呢間麵包舗開門. 好多人排隊,好似有得分咁. 點解其他麵包舗唔開門做生意呢?

走雞(2)...Vienna Harley Days

睇完老爺車跟住去咗Vienna Harley Days.

After visiting the old-timers exhibition, I went to another event, Vienna Harley Days.

走雞(1)...Vienna Höhenstraßen Classic

噚日嘅活動主要同車有關.

Yesterday my activities were related to cars.

首先去咗Q19 shopping mall睇Vienna Höhenstraßen Classic老爺車展. 去到個mall出面已經開始咗一架一架介紹啲車. 大約廿幾架之後就話完咗喇. 心諗咁小嘅. OK,唯有行吓個商場. 喺嗰度睇見呢個活動嘅poster. 原來之前一日展出咗60架老爺車. 走咗雞添.

First, I went to Q19, a shopping mall, for the Vienna Höhenstraßen Classic.  It was an exhibition about old-timers.  When I arrived, they were already introducting the cars one by one.  After 20 something cars, they announced that were all.  I thought why there were only a few.  Ok, then I went into the shopping mall to do window shopping.  I saw the poster of the event and found out that there were 60 old-timers the day before.  Oh, I missed it.

Wiener Festwochen藝術週

噚日開始Wiener Festwochen (Vienna Festival Weeks). 呢個係每年一度嘅藝術週. 揭幕音樂晚會,免費入場. 請黎本地,New York,巴黎同里斯本嘅表演嘉賓. 藝術唔係我杯茶,所以留係屋企睇live就算. 喺電視見到當時Rathausplatz企滿人.

Wiener Festwochen started yesterday.  It is an annual performance art events.  The opening ceremony was a free concert.  Besides local performers, there were guests from New York, Paris and Lisbon.  As art is not my cup of tea, I just stayed home to watch the live telecast.  I saw on TV that there were a lot of people in Rathausplatz watching the concert.

雖然我冇去睇,嗰朝去咗巡視個表演場地.

Although I didn't go there at night, I visited the venue in the morning.

萬能膠水(oh!應該係口水)

奧地利口水的應用:

1. 最普通係黏信封同郵票. 我試過喺郵局寄信,個職員幫我用口水貼郵票.簡直目瞪口呆. 好在我唔係收信嗰個.

QimiQ

之前用QimiQ整嘢食,好多blog友都唔知QimiQ係乜東東. 包括我自己. 根據website www.qimiq.com 資料. 佢係cream base黎架. 咁cream base係乜? Sorry, 我都唔知呀.

QimiQ係細細紙包裝. 超市將佢放係咖啡用品嗰欄.

剎那光輝

上咗兩日“用戶分享“,最高記錄係第二日7172人次瀏覽, 第一日喺人氣榜第四位. 但係呢個似係剎那光輝, 依家我個blog回復番平靜lu.

會唔會有朝一日我呢個成為超人氣blog,跟住有人搵我出書呢? (依家只係夜晚9點幾已經發緊夢)

多謝blog友 Fion一早save咗嗰screen同send埋俾我,等我有得做紀念.

Vienna Ring Tram現真身

之前介紹搵笨 Vienna Ring Tram. 佢通咗車都好小撞見. 原來佢係半個鐘一班. 有日特登喺總站Schwedenplatz捕佢.

多瑙河探秘/Adventure on the Danube

因為一首“藍色多瑙河“好多人黎維也納都會去睇睇. 而多瑙河上嘅人工島Donauinsel就係維也納人休閒嘅地方. 島上有一個我知好耐但懶得去嘅地方,趁噚日天氣好一於去吓.

Because of the music Blue Danube, visitors also come to the Danube when they are in Vienna.  There is an artificial island on the Danube.  And there is a place on the island that I have known for a long time but I have been too lazy to go there.  Yesterday the weather was so nice so I decided to go.

呢度係Neue Donau.

This is Neue Donau (New Danube)

點解會上到呢

今日check email多咗好多yahoo blog回應喎. 心諗: “妖!死人廣告“ 原來唔係喎,blog友話我知我上咗yahoo首頁“用戶分享“ 度. 平時得五十幾人, 噚日成6179人. 咁高興 !!?? 點解會上到呢? 係咪有人提名架? 有冇人知呀? btw我好鍾意yahoo關於我嘅介紹.

但係同部分blogger講聲sorry. 回應直接或間接買廣告都會俾我delete架!

再整馬豆糕

上次整嘅 馬豆糕好成功. 但係我想佢實一啲,請教咗師傅T&P, 話可以落大菜絲. 咁返香港時買咗一包過黎,今次整加咗. 可能我太心急, 大菜絲熔唔晒, 美中不足. 但個樣可以呃得吓人.

依家我冇晒大菜絲,問呢度嘅朋友有乜可以代替. 佢話一塊塊嘅大菜絲好似呢度嘅Gelatine (gelatin). 上wikipedia check, gelatin係由豬提煉而大菜絲係植物. 咁我買咗gelatin粉整mousse, 但係唔識用, 失敗咗. 下次整到先post出黎.

Mai Fest

噚日5.1除咗集會同遊行, SPÖ社會黨喺 Prater又搞咗個Mai Fest. 第一次喺維也納見到人山人海. 呢度有免費concert添.

5.1勞動節

我諗因為我係接受殖民地教育,覺得勞動節好共產色彩. 而5.1喺奧地利係公眾假期. 市內有集會同遊行.俾我嘅感覺都係好共產.

勞動節前夕傳統市中心有個Fiaker嘅燭光遊行,參加嘅主要係青年. 我睇得明其中一項爭取嘅係有錢人要俾多啲稅.
