Austria (Day Two; Part Two)

Our final stop was to first see the gazebo where some popular scenes were filmed in the Sound of Music.  The Gazebo has been relocated, and so we were in a different spot from the movie (but there was a fantastic playground nearby that Hazel went nuts over, so I guess it was ok).  I was also really hoping that Johnny could've guided me as I leaped from bench to bench, but we weren't allowed inside.  (So I just had to imagine that event taking place).

Next we visited the Abbey of Mondsee where Maria and Captain Von Trapp were married.  This is officially the cutest, and coolest church I've ever been to .  All cute and yellow, with an adorable gray and white chevron print flooring all over outside.  Adorable!

And we had to of course stop by the Hard Rock Cafe in Munich to purchase a collectors shot glass for Johnny before we departed.

Fun fun trip! 

 And that's a wrap.

Austria; Day Two (Part One)

I was very excited to go to Austria for my first time.  It was only a small drive from where we were staying in Munich, Germany over to Salzburg, Austria.

Our first stop was to the Mirabell Gardens to see the horse fountain, where several scenes from The Sound of Music were filmed.  Maria and the children sang Do-Re-Mi while dancing around the fountain and using the stairs as a musical scale.  So-oo magical to be there.

After that, we went over to Mozart's House, so cool, followed by some window shopping.  The most amusing part was that we were dying of heat, and thought it must've been extremely hot.  Nope, just 75 degrees.  These pale, chilly weather England peeps can't handle such extreme temperatures I guess. ;)

(And if I had lots of money, I would've bought Hazel a dirndl.  Cutest little dresses I've ever seen in my life.  Oh well, I'll keep dreaming.)

A little more still coming...
