Yesterday after work I enjoyed one of the many attractions along the Danube Canal, the “Strandbar Herrmann“.  We had a power problem in the office, which made it all the more tempting to leave a bit early and cycle over to this popular “beach” bar.   I snapped a photo of the happy masses:

As it got dark, even more people were still showing up.  Good fun.  Nice to dig my feet into the sand.
