Busy, busy. Very Busy. Two Days, two countries, three cities and an anniversary...

SO, backtracking a bit. The rest of our time in Innsbruck was super. We had a quick walk around town before hitting the road in our Mercedes 'Corby' bound for Salzburg.

It would be great to revisit Innsbruck during the winter / autumn to get a different appreciation of things in the colder months as the temperatures at the moment are between 30-35 degrees.


Before heading off we picked up some supplies from the local store.  The attendant at the deli was rather non-responsive and we even contemplated administering CPR to get some sort of response.  So, no flesh for us and we settled for a bag of chips instead.



Ryan took the controls of 'Corby' which involved two vocal GPS's, one stuck to the front windscreen and the other sitting in the passenger seat. I think he did the speed limit, whatever that was.


After the quick 2hour trip to Salzburg we checked in and hit the town, the old town - so old that we saw where ol' Wolfie (aka Mozart) was born also the place where physicist Christian Doppler lived


Certainly a lot of talent in that town, and what a remarkably beautiful town it is.


Just over the bridge we trotted around the rather familiar Mirabell Gardens.  Not one for movies myself, there was something spooky about this.  All I can say is DO-RE-MI.


There were some rather saucy statues that should wear more clothes...also appearing in the same movie.


We  think this chap is an expert at doing squats at the gym...


And not to let it slip by, today (27th) was our anniversary and we couldn't have spent it in a more beautiful place.  We shall return again some day.  Tomorrow... the Sound of Music Tour and a trip back to Munchen.
