Took the funicular up to the fortress.
The view of Salzburg from the fortress.
More beauty from a different angle.
Stolperstein or Stumbling Blocks are memorial-stones. The small brass plaques embedded in the cobblestone walk, in front of houses of which the residents (mostly Jewish) were murdered by the Nazis. The plate has the name, date of birth and place (mostly a concentration camp) and date of death on them.
The Salzburg Cathedral is famous for its Italian style architecture and its role as the location of Mozart's baptism.
A wonderful place to wonder around in...again I wish I had more time here.
We met a friend of Gloria's, Hans, who lived here in Canada but has moved back to Austria near Salzburg.
Cheryl, Alice, Gloria, Paulette and I are ready to go to the Mozart Concert and Dinner! We took a taxi to the 1200 year old St. Peter Stiftskeller, the oldest restaurant in Europe located in St. Peter's Abby.
Waiting to be seated.
We are seated and ready for our dinner and concert. We enjoyed an evening of fine dining and music. We heard Mozart's masterpieces which were accompanied by two opera singers. It was a very delightful evening. Much enjoyed and so glad I took this in.
