Salzburg

Rain drops on roses and whiskers on kittens,
Snowflakes that fall on my nose, and eyelashes
These are a few of my favorite things.

Ring a bell?
It should.
It’s the famous “The Sound of Music”
that was filmed here in Salzburg, Austria.
We toured the grounds.
{which was interesting that it wasn’t all in one place}
we saw the 16 going on 17 pavilion
we saw the gardens,
and the Pegasus fountain,
etc. etc. etc.
it was so fun
 {there was an orchestra playing, love the outfits}
 {secret pathways}
{in the movie}
 {pegasus fountain}
{garden, then to the right is- "i am 16 going on 17" thing}

Also another thing Salzburg is known for is
Mozart.
He was born and raised here.
We saw churches he played in,
His birth place,
His bridge that was built for him
We even had a chocolate homemade treat
That was named/made after him.
{Mozart's candy}
{mozart sharing his candy}

We took it pretty easy here in Salzburg.
{we only had 1 day}
It was a little chilly, and overcast,
But still beautiful!

I would have to admit that
By far the best countryside
{most beautiful}
would have to be Austria’s
Sorry there arent really any pictures of Austria
{the ones below are the German countryside}
…Unfortunately my camera was dead.
Horrible timing I know.
Guess you will just have to see it yourself!
 

At nighttime we had heard of a famous hanger
That we should not miss out on
{airport hanger}
the guy that invented -Red Bull- was from Austria
He had a hanger that was a
Restaurant, and a place for his
 planes, racecars, toys, etc.
it was way cool.
It was a 360 degree windowed area.
We just got smoothies, which were delicious.
 {from the outside}
 {top and bottom, inside shots}

{our smoothies and view}
 {their bathrooms were legit}

We drove to the hanger from Germany {Dachau}
So there are some random pictures intermixed
With the others from Salzburg below!

Here are a few randoms
 {our breakfast}
 {a rocket slide}
 {funny that the disabled have to go allll the way
around the building.... also what does 15% mean?}
 {not much privacy haha, i was on the sidewalk}
 {pay for bathrooms..... lame}
{they built this castle to scare off intruders of war.
except they havent been in war forever. so guess it works}
 {a sign haha}
{we would have got this, except it was 199 Euro}
