Auf Wiedersehen, Salzburg

I am catching up. Not intentionally throwing you off by posting out of order. I just found that photo of us at the church in Vienna on the phone while we were without internet access on the bus this morning. (Thank you T-Mobile for our ancient international plan with free international services.)

We are currently on a very slowly moving boat in the Danube Valley having elected to get out of a city for one during our trip. We are on a day tour of the Valley heading to the Melk Abbey. Unfortunately, the wifi on the boat is as slow as the boat, so this is probably all I can get done during the cruise. (if this..two resized photos are taking 45 minutes to load*.)

But to travel back in time. Our last evening in Salzburg was overcast and drear but we still found our way to the Mirabell Gardens. For aficionados of the Sound of Music, here is the gate and fountain that were the setting for 'Do Re Me'.

 

Then in the 'what a difference a day makes' category the next/our last morning in Salzburg was Bee-you-ti-full. Sunny and lovely. In fact, you might say that the "hills were alive...."  (I would but Michael is already tiring of my song cues. But you go right ahead.)

*in fact, after an hour they still hadn't loaded so I am only just now posting this after finally getting back to the apartment.
