Laundromat saga.

Don't listen to Greg below.. there is a laundromat in Venice!

But he's right about there being no laundromats in Vienna!! The worst thing is that our plan was to do all our washing in Vienna as soon as we arrived because we'd be spending two days there. Whereas in Florence and Venice we were only spending one night and half a day. So we arrived in Vienna armed with mounds of washing - wearing our last clean clothes - only to find that there is none! Apparently most of them closed down - obviously they are not needed by the locals. Our hotel searched on the web for a laundromat and we asked at numerous places but no one knew of any.

A good tip to remember when travelling is that you can wear underwear 4 times - forward, backward, inside out forward and inside out backward. Too much info?

Thankfully we found somewhere in Prague and have washed enough clothes to get us to Germany.

Who writes your materials? I now have a new perspective on wearing clothes. This will really cut down the washing and ironong bill!! And help the water ristrictions here too. By the way, can you bring back some water - we need it in Geelong (although we had our first decent downpour on Sunday - for a about 3 years!!).
