Salzburg

6 July 2010

We caught a bus to the train station and thought we were going to miss the train but it turned out the train was not coming and a bus was sent to take us.  We almost got off the bus at the wrong stop but a helpful man told us to stay on.  Transferred to a train and then another train, made it to Munich OK.  Got on the train from Munich to Salzburg which should take about 1.5 hours and get us into town by 7 PM.

Made it to Salzburg.  This place seems a bit run down and the people seem a bit shady.  The hotel recommended seemed a bit run down so we went down a couple places.

This hotel was E 119 for three people but they accepted cash only.  Luckily we had a enough cash.  The room was nice and clean but we had hoped to stay two days and we were only able to get the room for one night.  We decided to walk around a bit and went to the "Alt Stadt" or old town, found a place to eat. I had venison stew, Matt had goulash (beef stew) and Laurie had salmon ravioli.  I had a pretzel but I remembered last time I was in Munich they charged for the pretzels.  I figured they were free this time and so I had part of another pretzel.  Nope, E 1.50 per pretzel.  Total meal was E 40.00.
