My 2nd day
in Salzburg, Austria is a day of
sightseeing—Hellbrunn Palace, Mirabell Gardens, a
concert, and a beer garden—with oom-pah-pah bands,
yodelers, and those “guys who hop and slap

Day 18
— Salzburg, Austria; first train trip
20-August-1971 (Fri.)
Mozart’s
birth city — Salzburg, Austria. I take my first train
ride, totally standing up, to this wonderful city.
Salzburg welcomes me with a hail storm and no student
service to help me. What to do? Find a room, walk
around, listen to music, and enjoy. Which I do.
Photography is my hobby and Salzburg is a great place to take photographs. (Photos coming soon.) If you aren’t already taking digital pictures, you should be. Come on. Pictures are memories!
