Last time on the blog.....

We had just made it into Salzburg. One word: beautiful. It is also the town that "The Sound of Music" was filmed in, and we are obsessed with that movie. The alps are amazing and Salzburg is an awesome town. Our hostel was nice, they had breakfast in the morning and played The Sound of Music every day, so it gets an "A" in our book.
Our first day in the Burg, we did a lot of walking. We went to the Mirabell Gardens, where they sing "Do, re, mi" in the movie and walked around. Then we actually did a hike up a mountain to see an amazing view of the city and castle.
The best part of Salzburg was the Sound of Music tour we did Saturday morning. We went all over Salzburg and saw different places the where scenes of the movie were shot. We got to see the gazebo, the trees the kids climbed, the church they got married in and a bunch of other places. We got to drive into the mountains outside of Salzburg and the views were amazing. Silvana and I sang along with the tour leader to a few songs from the movie--we would have made our mothers proud.
We really wished we had had more time in Salzburg because we realized that there is so much to do there, but we had already made reservations for the night in Vienna, so we hauled our stuff to the train station and boarded a train for Vienna.
Surprisingly, our trip to Vienna went very smoothly and we had our own cabin on the train--awesome.
So far Vienna has been nice. We have only gotten lost once, and that one time was not for very long. Tomorrow we leave for Greece, and we could not be more ready for some sunshine!
