Day 33 – Salzburg

at 11.36am

We left the hotel after breakfast to head for Salzburg. As usual in Austria the train awas exactly on time, as was our connection.

Once in Salzburg we caught the bus to our accommodation. This time it seems to be university rooms in halls not that dissimilar to those at Warwick. The room is very nice and airy although it is a bit of a walk to the old town. It wasn’t really what we expected as the most expensive place we have stayed but it is fine.

We headed straight for town to find it very busy with tourists – it is a Saturday after all. We walked around the town, after having some lunch from the supermarket, taking in the cathedral, rathaus and other old buildings. We then went up to the convent from the Sound of Music – it excited Emma anyway!

A pleasant walk back along the river followed and then bed.
