Wien 1170 Hernals Photos

Sleepy John and I took a stroll through the 17th district (Hernals) and the adjacent Wienerwald a few months back. These are some photos I took on that stroll.

FPÖ HC Strache Billboard
Wien darf nicht Istanbul werden - Vienna can't become Istanbul. HC Strache is a member of the FPÖ, the Freiheitliche Partei Austria (Austrian Freedom Party). Strache was  (is?) runnning for Vienna mayor. The FPÖ is a right wing party. Austrian politics is pretty weird.

Yellow House
How's that for a house?

Yellow Arch
I think this arch belongs to the yellow house.

Racism in Vienna
You see lots of this around town - graffiti denigrating black Africans accompanied by graffiti (or, as in this case, stickers) denigrating racists. Klappe! Nazi = Shut your trap, Nazi!

Dingy Building
This building has character.

Great photos. I really enjoy seeing everyday images from places different than my own.

Happy trails

Paul: I'm glad you enjoy the pictures. More are on the way. Thanks for the kind words.

John: Sorry about that - warped mirror = warped reflection of John. I'll add a disclaimer...
