Yeah, 'cause then you can do the whole big tour with the train up the other side and all!
That would've been nice. We picked a weird time to go...it wasn't wintery enough for the sledding to be open (which was sad, sad, sad), and not summery enough for anything else to really be open. And of course, there was the cloud that sat around the mountain the entire time...
On the first big one, there was a girl in front of us crouched down below the window, hanging on for dear life and trying very hard not to have a breakdown. Her mean friends were teasing her...
Dude, I was that girl. I wasn't crouched, exactly, but I was very close. I didn't see much on the way up during that part of the ride. Going down was much better.
Oooh, jealous! We only had time to see them at night, so they were already closed.
They were quite awesome. The first one had a spectacular view over the city. And of course you get to walk on the wall between three of the others, which was neat.
Very cool. Again, wish I'd had more time to check that out.
Such a strange, strange thing. But fun. It mostly satisfied our desire to go to the Nature Museum (whose admission was something like 30 francs, so no).
Ugh, lucky! It was more like 90+ when we were there. Blech.
90? Ew. Maybe I don't want to go back in June. Ugh.
It's such a pretty little town.
I want a house up there.
That's where we spent most of our time, 'cause there was actually a breeze up there!
Salzburg was actually chillier than Luzern--the first day was chilly int he morning, but warmish int eh afternoon, and the second day was rainy and cold. We were kind of trying to stay out of the cool breezes... ;)
Oooh, I loved those! I got one that just has the Salzburg city-scape on it, basically. My mom got one that was cut out to look like lace.
Oh, I missed those kind. Mine is purple with 3D flower decorations.
There was a whole shop that was nothing but eggshells when we were there - it was huge, and they had about anything you could imagine on them. Of course, we found the shop half an hour before we had to be back at the bus. Grrr. It was way down by the river, so I have the sinking feeling that it was wiped out in the floods. :(
I saw a "Salzburg Easter Shop" in the old town that I wish I'd seen before I got my egg; I actually got it at the Christmas shop, which I think is probably owned by the same people who own the Easter one, and they were tryin to get rid of some of their stock. ;)
