Holiday ... Salzburg, Austria




2nd May -  We cruised into Linz where we embarked on a bus tour to Salzburg in Austria.

We drove through some gorgeous alpine scenery and mountain lakes til we arrived at Salzburg, city where Mozart was born.  We spent the entire day there, looking through the old city and in particular the Hohensalzburg Fortress

Mozart stature - don't know how he is suspended

Nice view of Salzburg



St Peters cemetery - generally we noticed cemeteries to be beautifully tended ... plants, trees and flowers
