Smashed to pieces (in the still of the night)
This is the meaning of the inscription at the Falkturm in Esterházypark, where the Haus des Meeres is. The kids and I went up the deck to take some photos as it was a very lovely winter afternoon...with the sun out and clouds in full.
The Flakturms are six large, built of reinforced concrete defense and protective structures in Vienna, built within the years 1942 to 1945 as huge air-raid shelters with fitted air defense guns and fire control.---
This particular flak's inscription was by Laurence Weiner. At the other side is the English version, only I wasn't able to take a photo....

One Day Snow
Getting an inch of snow is like winning 10 cents in the lottery.
