Set off by train from Munich to Salzburg early this morning (well early somewhere in the world). Taxi driver nearly had a hernia picking up our 30kg bags – was quick to accept David’s offer of help for the second one.
Loaded our bags on the train, bought our coffees and we were good to go…..you know it’s a long time since you’ve had a good Melbourne coffee when Starbucks tastes OK.
Trip took two hours – I still can’t get used to the idea that a 2 hour train ride gets you to another country!
Hotel here very different to our cute little pension in Munich – not so homely – but brilliantly located – with a promise of a great night’s sleep!
Spent the afternoon roaming Old Salzburg town. Just like a picture book – pretty much preserved intact with original buildings & fabulous shops ranging from tourist kitch to incredibly elegant couture. Some glorious dirndl and lederhosen – Aaron and Caity, do we have a surprise for you!
Wish we were there r really enjoying your trip. Love your comments.
Have you had any Mozart Balls? And have you remembered to have Salzburger Knockerl? What about the Sound of Music Tour?
So many questions! No to the Mozart balls (but still have 2 days). Where do we get the other thing? Did the SOM tour today – in pouring rain š will update blog tomorrow but exhausted as we were on our feet all afternoon & assembled the bike tonight
Enjoying your Blog, have fun guys, cant wait to see you when the Bike ride begins.
Were the hills alive?
Trust you resisted the temptation to burst into song.
Sounds fabulous.
No resistance whatsoever – sang my little heart out – I’ll never see any of them again, so why not.
