| We love Salzburg |


What a day! We finished off Prague with a beautiful St. Peter & Paul cathedral visit. Conveniently, it was right by our hotel. We just walked right to it. It was above us, sheltered by a big castle wall in a little village. We walked around the cemetery first and found a famous composer's, (Dvorak,) grave. It was a beautifully decorated graveyard with a bright sunny day, so it wasn't as creepy. The church was beautiful with baroque, gothic architecture inside and out. There was actually a wedding as we were there. We then preceded onto Salzburg. Such a historically Alive city. It was full of grandeur with the Alps in the back. Just magical. We checked into our Austrian haus and it was so cute like an Austrian little villa. We then decided to attend dinner and a Konzert at the historic castle of Salzburg. The food was okay, but the view was breathtaking. The concert was all our favorites, because it was Mozart, Bach, Dvorak, Schubert and Hydan...and perfect for the musical city "of class." This morning 6/8, was our morning self tour of Old Town. We loved it. The neat Roman architecture, Roman arches...Mozart Platz, the markets...just a neat place. We loved the views, especially of the Alps. We ran into a Sr. couple today serving in nearby Austria with their family. We recognized them because of their son's BYU shirt. Small world! We ended up getting a delicious traditional Austrian meal of sausages for lunch. A Sulzburger and a Bosna roll thing. It was delicious. We drank Almdudler, which is an Austrian ginger ale. Yum yum! We had fresh strawberries from the market and are on our way via Munchen! We got to Munich, and ate at restaurant Opatija...it was great. Huge cornflakes crusted schnitzel and just joy! With a little walk around the city ended with a great day and wonderful evening. The weather was splendid and we feel like we're getting used to this European thing!
