How to stay warm in Austria

  • How to stay warm in Austria



With winter approaching it’s about time to get that warm coat from the loft and find a nice place to  sip a coffee. Over in Austria, temperatures just manage to keep the water liquid - during the day. These ladies know and come out of the warm cabin of their impressive motor only to show off their impressive fur coats. Nope - It’s not just the Vienna number plate suggesting they were no mere farmer’s daughters.

If that big car really is theirs, they certainly aren’t impoverished. That’s an Austro-Daimler, made in Vienna too. It could well be the ADM with overhead cam six-cylinder engine. Or perhaps even the rare eight-cylinder version? Never mind. Off to Hotel Sacher for a Melange and a piece of that lovely cake they make there...

The Austro-Daimler was made in Wiener Neustadt, 60 km south of Vienna.
From the front view, ADR 6 and ADR 8 look the same, even from the bonnet side. Maybe there was some inscription or badge somewhere.
The photo looks as if taken on a river bank, maybe Prater or Danube. For sure not at the Vienna downtown Sacher or in Salzburg or Baden.

Coffee at Sacher always was fine - the question is - which Sacher - that one in Vienna, or that in Salzburg? Unfortunately the photo does not give any hint where it was taken :(
However - the two ladies do not look like poor ones.....
