So we went to Salzburg, Austria. Salzburg is the home of Mozart, the Von Trapp family, and a famous salt mine. And, we saw all three! well, sort of. We stayed at the Villa Trapp, the actual home of the family (but not the one in the movie) which is now a swanky bed and breakfast. We went on the Sound of Music movie bus tour in the city and around the countryside and saw the actual places where the movie was filmed. We went to the Mozart museum which is located in the house where he grew up. We ate at a cafe where Mozart used to hang out. And, we got to tour a salt mine. And, we even rounded out the visit with a trip in a funicular to the fortress that overlooks the city. That is a lot of excitement in one short little weekend!
