Linz

Spent much of yesterday cycling through the City of Linz and surrounding countryside.   Found a very nice family sports complex with a number of swimming pools, tennis courts,  and picnic areas.  Bought a senior day pass for 2.15 Euro.  Didn't spot any other tourist among the hundreds of other visitors.

Spent the entire day at the Belvedere learning about the Hapsdburgs and studying the art of Gustave Klimt.  The photo was taken through the old glass windows of the Upper Belvedere Palace.
