Arriving Salzburg

After a really long day in the bus from Prague, we were all really glad to arrive in Salzburg.  The hotel was nice and we were glad to get settled.  A few shots of our room are in the album for this post.

It was raining when we arrived and we had no activities until the next morning, so many of the group just ate in the hotel.  But we felt more adventurous and decided to strike out, umbrella's in-hand, to find someplace interesting to eat.

It was an easy walk down the street and over a pedestrian bridge to Old Town where we started looking for someplace interesting with Austrian food.  While there were cafe's and bars, we were not having much success until we walking into a small place that was jammed with people and buzzing with enthusiasm.  Unfortunately, they were fully booked for the evening and could not take us, but sent us further down the street, deeper into the Old Town, in search of one of their sister locations.

We never found their recommendation, but we finally stumbled upon a restaurant that was busy with a crowd that looked local, and with a decent menu.  I was very happy to find schnitzel and spaetzle on the menu, and that's what I ordered.  It was fabulous.

We found our way back to the hotel, in the rain, and crashed for the night, as the next day started early.
