Europa - III

[minn]

SalzburgThe charming town of Salzburg lies nestled against the craggy cliff of the Mönchsberg mountain, with the forbidding fortress of Festung Hohensalzburg keeping a silent vigil. The streets of the old town are narrow, paved with stones, and partially frozen in time. Numerous shops and boutiques beckon the visitor, their elegant façades

The horse appears like he knows you are clicking him. Bringing the stoned alive, are we? :)

These pictures were super scenic, felt refreshed just looking at them. Super!

I only manage to catch the first picture of your post. I'll have to check the rest at work as this dial-up speed internet is just way too slow ;)

Anyhow, love the first pic. Such a gorgeous looking place.

Checking your photos at work....great photos Minnie! Such a lovely lush green place. Wish we had more of that around here iN Canberra.

By the way, I love the black jacket that you're wearing in the photo. Gorgeous clip at the waist.

I visited Salzburg just before Christmas in 1997, and had the same reaction to it you did, namely love at first sight. Gorgeous pictures, thanks for the vicarious vacation!

I think I visited Salzburg as a child, but seeing these photos makes me want to go back there NOW. Thanks, Minnie. :-)

Also, Mozartkugeln are one of the best inventions ever. I remember my first year in Taiwan. It was the first time I spent Christmas away from home and I missed the European Christmas atmosphere. Then a friend treated me to authentic Mozartkugeln and Weihnachtskuche and I instantly felt myself being transported to Europe. Good times.
