Austria!

I never realized how beautiful Austria is! Today is a national german holiday so everything was closed. We ended up taking about an hour busride out to Salzberg, Austria and doing the sound of music tour. It was absolutely breath-taking. I think we saw the museum/tour that mom mentioned Angela and Tom doing, the one with the surpise, secret fountains. Salzberg is in a valley surrounded by gigantic mountains with snow on the peaks. We got to see nearly all the places they filmed for the movie and we took another hour busride to see the church from the marriage scene. There were huge crystal clear glacier lakes that apparently are so clean you can drink from them.

Tomorrow we have several museums and a concentration camp on the agenda and then Wednesday we leave for Florence!
