Salzburg, Austria

 Looking across the rooftops after arriving in Salzburg.     1994

I took this photo from the castle above the old city center.     1994

  We stayed in the Hotel Struber located at the base of the mount that holds the castle.     1994

 The hotel was very nice and I love the down comforters of Austria and Germany.     1994

 Looking out of our hotel room balcony is the incredible view of the Hohensalzburg Castle.      1994

 The Von Trapp House from the film "Sound of Music" with the castle in the background.     1994

The monastary and abbey gardens of the castle.   1994 

 Standing in front of the old cathedral in the town square where Maria was married in the film.

You can see that the castle is being renovated and part of the renovation includes a new coat of paint.     1994

 Here I am in the old town center having a big Coke. I still have that belt and wear it.     1994

 This is the main fancy shopping street and some of the locals wear the traditional attire for everyday.    1994

 I played a game of chess on the giant chess game next to the church. I do not remember doing very well.     1994

 Looking up from the steps of the cathedral. These pictures were scanned from 4x6 prints I took.      1994

Here's a menu in the old Austrian Shilling prices, pre Euro.    1994 

 Salzburg is a great walking city.    1994

As we were driving out of town, I caught a glimpse of the castle in my mirror and stopped to take this picture.    1994

I took this picture out the car window while driving from Salzberg to Innsbrook.       1994
