Off travelling for work again, I found myself in Salzburg for a couple of days. I decided to stay the weekend and Glen joined me on Friday night. Before he arrived I went on the Sound of Music tour (at which he breathed a sigh of relief). On Saturday we went on a lovely walk and did a tour of the Bavarian Alps in the afternoon. On Sunday we walked around the old town. Salzburg was really pretty (my photos don't do it justice) and I can imagine it must be absolutely stunning in summer. How can you go wrong in a town where I ate 6 desserts in 4 days (including 4 strudels)?!?!
