SUNDAYS at the PARK// Lifestyle

Fall Time is FUN TIME:

The weather has been absolutely amazing the ideal temperatures and sunny makes it a perfect time to go to the amusement park. The one most famous for its Ferris wheel, which happens to be the oldest ferris wheel in Europe or the first one in Europe - of course it has been updated so it is safe to go on.

The park is called the Prater which is located close to the city center. It is open from April to October so it is nice to visit in the fall. There are also nightly fireworks, bands and other events held throughout the year.

The Prater is filled with rides that I would say one might find in most amusements parks, the scary house, bumper cars, slides and rollercoasters but the Ferris wheel is special with its red painted carriages that are enclosed. Its like a little cabin in the sky and the views are amazing.

Also for any 007 Bond fans the park was featured in one of the movies. Can you guess which one?

Not only can you go on rides but there are

some popular places to eat from the traditional Austrian dish Wiener Schnitzel (the most well known) and of course great selection of beers and wines.

NOTE: next week is a version of Octoberfest for anyone interested.

So whats not to love about being a kid again?

Ciao for now!

CAMOUFLAGE STYLES// Fashion, designer

SOMETHING DIFFERENT I have to say I love color and prints, and when I saw the work of this Kenyan photographer Thandiwe Murui , I was in AWE. Such vibrant prints that make a statement . The prints or the checkerboard are definitely eye- catching. ( I happen to have a checkerboard top that I wear as a coverup) This might not be for everyones taste, but sometimes it is fun to be a bit wilder!

INSTAGRAM REAL STARS?

WONDER IF SHE IS REAL? How many people follow their favourite instagram and feel perhaps this is what a real person looks like and maybe lives like. I am not talking celebrities like Rihanna or Kardashians or any of the other major celebrities . I am not a big follower of instagram, but for those that are there are a few surprises such as one very popular Instagram Star is actually a virtual reality image, not a REAL person. These computer generated images look so real that people are actually thinking it is a real person. Something strange about that , if someone is able to fool people in such a way Firstly it is not stated this is not a real person This to me is funny. with all the talk about fake news etc. So why is it allowed to have computer generated images allowed to be part of?
