on the road from Vienna, along the Danube... |
...in the village of Durnstein |
quiet paths near the river |
now overlooking the monastery in Melk |
and finally arriving in Salzburg! |
at the Mirabellgarten on the right bank |
a WW2 memorial |
Tom sets up |
in the famous arbor |
|
|
|
leaving the gardens to cross a bridge to the left bank |
from the bridge |
the Salzach river |
|
the old town is really crowded with tourists! |
|
|
|
|
another view up the hill to the Festung Hohensalzburg |
now a view from the castle down to the city |
a surprsing bit of calm next to the city |
the views from the castle's "other" side are good also |
|
|
wandering through the castle grounds |
|
|
a little color left in the ruins of the 16th c. romanesque chapel |
|
|
on the castle parapet |
looking down toward Kapitelplatz |
|
and south toward the river |
down in the old town again |
it's Mozart's town |
|
|
a memorial to a family of deportees |
heading up Stefan Zweig way toward the Kapuzinerberg |
|
a view down toward the right bank |
a memorial to Stefan Zweig, one of Marla's favorite authors |
|
Wolfie is everywhere in this town! |
|
|
back down to the Linzergasse |
at the St. Sebastian cemetery on the right bank |
|
Mozart's wife's grave |
|
some friendly reminders |
a nice way to end our day |
