Going Down the Tubes

Trying to navigate around Vienna to find my youth hostel last night was surreal. Vienna is a city of tubes. I rode into town in my cycle tube, below the car tube, and next to the train tube.


When you want to change tubes that's when it gets interesting. I had to take a lift up to the next level travel along another tube and then you come out into a TUBE JUNCTION.



These are very scary when you do not know which tube you want. It is so disorientating because you lose all sense of direction. You just have to ask another tube dweller.

It reminds me of those hamster homes that you can build with plastic connector pieces from the pet shop. Maybe I am in someone elses hamster home that they have designed for me. Or else marble works world.

Of course this is not all of Vienna and I will discover the enchanting bits tomorrow, that is if I can just find my way out of this tube.
