... dry cereal with me to help with cravings haha), then went to St. Peter&#8217;s. It&#8217;s a monastery/cathedral/cemetery/catacomb combination at the foot of the fortress that&#8217;s built partly into the side of the hill. We walked around for a while, explored the catacombs, then went inside for some sketching. <br><br>Our last stop of the day, and of our visit to Salzburg, was going to be the Mirabelle Gardens ...

Stayed at a beautiful spot in Austria (Saalbach) with Hilly, Stu's old friend and new Father..actually felt sorry for him, the poor sod was knee deep in relatives, in laws, newly purchased crib and nappies, etc.....we stayed for afew days and it was neatly timed with the arrival home of new born Frankie. Hilly's place is 3 feet from a field of horses so Lauren was easily kept busy with feeding duties.<br><br>Stu tried ...

... the women then the men to follow. Got to the bottom of the track just in time for the final few riders. Sam Hill won for Australia by 3 seconds with Fairclough of Great Britain in 5th. Great day. The riders partied through the night so we put our ear plugs in and got some sleep ready to move on to Salzburg the next day.<br><br>Here's some pics before the camera broke....<br><br>

... at our B&amp;B, although the lady running it was kind of strange. She did let us use their grill though and gave us good breakfasts. And when we left she gave us a big bag of salt. There is a huge salt mine right down the road, so we are guessing it has something to do with that. We met a nice older couple from England while we were here and they even gave us a ride to the train station when we left. The good comes with the bad usually.

... the top of the mountain are also a bit on the narrow side. A large section was also a bit scary because there was construction work being done that closed one lane so there was only one skinny shared lane remaining, and at times I wondered how a car any bigger than ours could squeeze along. We figured there must be another way to the top that our GPS failed to use because there were some large ...

... like Fawlty Towers. I don&#8217;t want to complain too much, but the electric doesn&#8217;t work after dark. Nice. <br><br> We took the funicular (inclined) railway up to Hohensalzburg Fortress, which sits atop a tall hill overlooking the entire city. It was a fun adventure exploring its many areas. There was an exhibit on WWI German Army artifacts, including a complete field ...

We got an early start out of Munich and reached Salzburg without any trouble. We stopped here on our way to Bad Ischl to see the Salzburg Fortress, which is easily found since it looms over the city at the top of cliffs on the city edge. Getting to the entrance was not quite so easy! We eventually found a path halfway up the hill where we could park on a ...

August 26-Monday<br>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&#8217;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.

Salzburg is the birthplace of W.A. Mozart. If you aren't a Mozart fan, then Salzburg is not the place to be. Nor is Austria in general, for that matter. Mozart is everywhere! Right down to Mozartkugeln; small, very rich chocolate-covered marzipan sweets. One day we went to the Mozart Exhibition at a castle on the outskirts of Salzburg. We were there for hours, and I loved the whole thing. The exhibition ...
