Vienna, Day 1

Today we took the train from Salzburg to Vienna. Lots of lovely views. It was around supper time when we got to Vienna, so we walked around until it got dark. We went to the top of St. Stephen's Cathedral, went inside St. Peter's Church and walked by the Hofburg Palace and a few other sites.

Salzburg, Day 5

Today we were expecting rain all day but thankfully it only rained for a few minutes. We made the most of the dry day by walking through the Mirabell Gardens, sightseeing through the old town (including Nonnberg Abbey again) and we also toured the Salzburg Festival House, which you will probably recognize from The Sound of Music. Our last full day in Salzburg, it has been a great stay.

Salzburg, Day 4

Salzburg at night - beautiful!

Salzburg, Day 3

Another full day with sun the entire day!! First I walked 200 steps up the Kapuzinerberg hill to a lookout over the city. From there we walked to the old city and I took lots more steps up to Nonnberg Abbey where there are fantastic views as well as the gate that was featured in The Sound of Music. Then we went in St Peter's Abbey and saw the old cemetery behind it. I walked up lots of narrow, steep steps to see the catacombs. We saw the house Mozart was born in, went inside Kollegienkirche, took the elevator up to the Mönchsberg lookout where, again, we had amazing views of Salzburg and then we walked along the river and through the Mirabell gardens. Another amazing day in Salzburg.
