Retracing steps

It's the third time I've been to Vienna. The most I've visited any European city outside Italy or Czech. So I try to retrace some steps from previous visits and draw a path from our parking spot to the centre. We pass by this 8th century church of St Rupert, stunning for its age and unusual proximity to surrounding buildings. A piece of history immaculately preserved in the middle of the city. And then the Anker clock that strikes every day at midday and which we miss by minutes. At just over 100 years though it no ancient relic.
