Salzburg, Austria

Aunt Juju arrived (sans bags) on Monday morning......so we had to do some shopping in Regensburg :).  For those who know us, this was right up our ally!  Tuesday morning we all (minus John) piled into the Odyssey and headed for Salzburg, Austria.  Aunt Juju's favorite movie is the Sound of Music, so we decided that we must visit where it was filmed.  Salzburg is about a 3 hour drive from where we live, so we arrived at our hotel about 1pm.  At 2 we headed to the the meeting spot for our "Sound of Music Tour".  Immediately both Juju and I began to have second thoughts.  For one, there were tons (many) Asian tourists with large cameras, and two the tour was 4 hours long on a large tour bus!  So, we promptly changed to a private tour the following morning for just our little group!  We spent the rest of the afternoon exploring Salzburg and shopping.  After dinner and Parker's bedtime, we watched the Sound of Music.....  Wednesday morning we got up, had breakfast and then met Gunter (our guide) in the lobby of our hotel.  Gunter was great!  He took us on a 2 hour tour of the city, that was much more "Parker Friendly".  We had a great time in Salzburg!
