Austria con't

On a side note, my posts seem to be going out of order, and I can't figure out the German way to fix it, so Italy was actually BEFORE Austria.

I finished my stay in Innsbruck this morning, and said a reluctant goodbye at 9am to the lovely town and mountains. I got on a 2 hour train, and traveled to Salzburg, where I set aside 5 hours to walk around and see as much of the city as I could. Salzburg is bigger than Innsbruck and has a totally different vibe - lots more tourists, and you can hear Mozart everywhere you go. Although the Altstadt (Old city) and parks were beautiful, I am more glad to have stayed in Innsbruck an extra night and enjoved the view. 5 hours was enough, and I took another 3 hour train to Vienna, where I am staying for 2 nights. The area I am in is really close to the train station, which I am thankful for since I am getting perma indentations from my backpack.

I really am glad I splurged and bought the first class train pass for Eastern Europe - it's the little things that make a difference, like being able to nap in more space all around. I also went shopping for the first time since I got to Europe.

It was a good day!
Tomorrow, Vienna....
