Ah, the reason is apparently that only shops up to a specific limit in size can be open on Sundays at stations. So they cleverly divide this shop into two separate ones on Sundays.
One wonders how long silly policies like this will persist. But I guess Austrians are quite conservative, even in Vienna. "Why would any decent person need to go to the shop on the Lord's Day".
Austrian legislation is weird. If you want to buy a bottle of Coke and a pack of cookies on a Sunday, from one of the few shops that are open on Sundays, at the railway station, you need to enter the shop twice and pay them separately. It is divided using temporary fences into two parts for legal reasons that are totally unclear to me. But maybe somebody can explain?

A fun task when viewing exhibitions that pair two artists is to try to find a work by one that could be mistaken as a work by the other. I don’t think there is any such here on display, though.
Picassostahan tulee aina mieleen kalakukko. (Enkä tarkoita mitään sananmuunnosta vaikka hän rasittava panomies olikin.) Kuka tietää?
Picasso with Bacon.
Another hotel where the floor numbers don’t match the hundreds digits of the room numbers. And it is the same “B&B” hotel chain as the one in Ulm where I noticed the same. Must be company policy?

Oh yes, YES!
I would have added the XB-70 and the TSR-2, though.
Yesterday morning and mid-day I visited Schönbrunn Palace. Lots of people and the start of the route through rooms with as such nice video projections was quite crowded. But the rest of the route through the fancy royal and imperial apartments was not too bad.
But note that the original furniture etc, including sofa, is not present. Those were eventually shipped to London after Freud managed to emigrate, and are in the Freud museum there.
One could view where the sofa was in an AR webpage on one’s phone, though.
After that I could finally have some pizza, as I am not in Italy any longer. Was delicious. Not sure what Freud would have thought of pizza. Feel free to guess in replies.
Visited the Freud museum, Berggasse 19. It was now much larger than when I visited last, which must have been before they enlarged it in 2020.

Ping @jimmac . Would you have recognised this symbolising Bohemia?
Pfft, the Trump ballroom will be much glitzier with even more gold.
