Haus Lindner Salzburg

... far from the train station to the hostel which was really nice and the hostel was a good one with a bar and they even fed us dinner (we had potatoe grostl one night and pizza the next). Even though Steve had a drunk guy step on him while he was sleeping we enjoyed our time there. We walked through the streets and saw the square Maria ran across and the gardens where she sang and danced with the children in The Sound ...

... the tour took us all over parts of Salzburg and a couple towns outside of town. we got some great pictures! At the last town we had some very tasty Apple Stroodle! After the tour was done we walked around Salzburg seeing markets and places dedicated to and places of Mozart.
The next day we headed to Prague... and I beleive you know what happened there, so on to Germany!!

... we jumped in the van with all the other tourists...there were 8 of us in total, and headed to see the spots and scenes that you see in the movie the Sound of Music. I hadn't seen it in quite a while so I'll have to watch it when I get home to compare! But we were also able to see the gazeebo that is in the movie when they sing the song I am 16 going on 17...pretty cool. We took tons of pictures, and a lot of them were in the areas ...

... dry cereal with me to help with cravings haha), then went to St. Peter’s. It’s a monastery/cathedral/cemetery/catacomb combination at the foot of the fortress that’s built partly into the side of the hill. We walked around for a while, explored the catacombs, then went inside for some sketching.

Our last stop of the day, and of our visit to Salzburg, was going to be the Mirabelle Gardens ...

... well. I was so ****** that I was going to be without my camera all day and it made me in a very grumpy mood for a while, but then I just accepted it and went about my way.

We finally made it to the top of the fortress (it was a very long and steep climb) and paid our entrance fee. The fortress provided lovely views of the city and there was a lot to do. We went into the different rooms and chapels, through the (VERY CREEPY) puppet room, and just walked around. We ...

... When we got to Salzburg, we found out our hotel gave us terrilbe directions to their building and walked around 'sightseeing' Salzburg for a while before we finally found our hotel. After we got checked in (aka just walked into our room. Reception is only open from 8:30-12 so they just leave the key in the door of your room until you come- weird), we went to find food. We ended up at this little bar/cafe down the street, where I had a really great meal ...

... day two to figure out what all the Mozart stuff was for. Hee hee! I'm so pretty! Two things that I noticed while wandering the old town? 1 - The buildings are super cute, some of them with random murals on them. 2 - It's cold in Salzburg. Really cold. And I realized that I had forgotten my coat at home in Canada... Crud. After wandering quite a bit to get the lay of the land, and then ...

... a lot of mileage! It was great to see the family and just enjoy catching up. Stephen is nearly all grown up these days (which makes me feel really old) and he is busy choosing colleges and stuff. It’s funny to be so far removed again from them, but at least we have technology these days, allowing us to stay in such good communication (not to mention share pictures and chat on the internet!) I can’t help thinking living abroad in the ...

August 26-Monday
We left Kitzbuhel at 8:30. There was a brief stop in Berchtesgarden, in Germany, at 10:00. Up on the side of the mountain, we could see Hitler's Eagle’s Nest. It was rather chilling to see that part of history. The bunker is now a restaurant. Our rest stop overlooked a valley filled with wonderful homes. What a view! Back on the bus and on to Salzburg. Time 10:35.
