Weekly Photo Challenge: Landscape

Location: Salzburg, Austria

During a visit to Salzburg, Austria, we rode the funicular up to the old Hohensalzburg Fortress built in the 11th century. Located 400 feet above the Salzach river, it offered a spectacular view of the city. Please click on any photo to enlarge.

Inside Austria: In the Land of Mozart

 
We left Germany on a good note by having a picnic lunch in the park at the foot of the Tegelberg mountain in Schwangau. Several of us went for a ride on the park’s luge course barreling down the stainless steel track on a wheeled bobsled. It felt great to be like a kid again.

From Schwangau, we headed to Salzburg, Austria, the birthplace of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The drive took about six hours. It included a 45-minute break for the driver and the much-needed bathroom relief for the rest of us at a motorway service station.
