Salzburg

Salzburg's famous "skyline" with the castle on the hill above the city
We paid homage to Sound of Music and visited sites from the movie like this arbor
Gotta get the unicorn...
Another S of M picture...Can you picture Maria and the children?
Isn't Jaclyn a cutie?
Aren't Jay and Donnette cute?
The warm potato salad and schnitzel with beer was a perfect lunch
The main shopping street with the required iron signs and the old monastery on the hill
Mozart's birthplace
I bought decorated eggs here, for everyone!  They are being shipped but haven't come yet....
The square in front of the palace
Cool sculpture, huh?
The cemetery behind the cathedral was beautifully kept up, lovely flowers and shrubs
The Sacher Hotel, where we had the famous Sacher Torte.  It got mixed reviews from our group...It was not very rich and chocolatey, more like a chocolate spice cake.  The hotel is very elegant.
