Munich Train Station
I wish I had taken some pictures of the station on Salzburg. It has been renovated within the last year and is really quite nice.
We arrived after 8 pm, took a taxi to our apartment on the Steingasse, and then out for a quick dinner. From the street (and most every place in Salzburg) we had a great view of the castle.
Since it was late, not too many places open. We managed to find a cute little cafe.
The next day was cold and rainy so I wasn't allowed to go out. John visited the cathedral and had a walk around the old town. I had a cozy day with a good book and great pastries.
One of eight organs in the cathedral:
There are 1776 diamonds in the monstrance. Yikes! As well as rubies and sapphires.
St. Lawrence:
Ceiling of the central dome:
Saturday arrived and no rain! Yay! So out to explore the city. It is definitely Christmas time in Austria:
So many beautiful shops. I don't think we missed a one!
Little bit of Halloween thrown in:
Lunch at the Schubert Tea Shop. Very charming!
Wondering what to do with those old jeans?:
Then more sightseeing:
This is probably the closest I'll ever get to Prada if John's shopping with me:
Bucephalus:
The dirndl. Wildly expensive. Tempting, but as John says - not exactly "a thing" in Arizona!
Cemetery - plots are leased. If you miss a payment - out you go!!!
Oh no!!!! Somebody ran over the running man!
Saturday evening we went to a concert at the Mirabel Palace. Very special evening:
Famous cherub decorated staircase in palace:
Nice walk back through the city:
