Salzberg, Austria

By far, one of my best planned trips! 
 On Mozart Bridge. You can see the fortress in the background.
 The Salt River.
 On the mountain top with the fortress.  Made it just before the sun set.
 We went to Lake Konigssee for a day in the mountains at Berchtesgaden. We took a ferry boat to St. Bartholomew's Church and hiking trails. So beautiful!
 We got lost for an hour looking for the "ice castle". We were so happy to have finally found the thing.  It's a glacier in the form of a rainbow.  The waterfall above is what makes the rainbow arch.
 St. Bartholomew Church
 One of the scenes from "Sound of Music". Kate and Bryan are running through the archway singing do, re, me, fa, so, la, te, do!
 The famous gondola from "Sound of Music" where they sing "Sixteen Going on Seventeen".
Red Bull Museum.

We did the Hop On, Hop Off tour, which had both a city tour and Sound of Music tour. Highly recommend. We also made it to the Salt Mine in Berchtesgaden. Only recommend if you have a child under 2 years old.  The other salt mines in the area have better slides and more slides.
