Saint Sebastian and Ramsau village

Back in the village, our main objective, besides killing time until seven o'clock or so, was to see the interior of Ramsau's famous church. It's famous because a lot of people come out to paint it, including President Eisenhower. It's a well known landmark of the region, though not on par with Saint Bartholomew's on the Königssee.

Nice interior, but nothing stood out so not many pictures. The portrait of Saint Sebastian was good, my photos of it not so much. The peaceful cemetery was enough to satisfy our inherent Gothy-ness. We went into some shops and got some of those Mozart chocolates so good score. We found a place to sit down and have coffee and ice cream. Ice cream is a huge thing here in Germany, apparently.

We visited the park and gardens, looked at some llamas. We probably should have gotten on the bus and gone out to Wimbachklamm, but we didn't. Had dinner, which was good and included one of dishes off my list, Teufelstoast, literally Devil's Toast. It's an open faced sandwich with pork, either breaded or not, covered in a spicy cream sauce. It' wasn't all that spicy, but it was good. Herr Hai got a schnitzel.

After this, we were done for. We didn't want to wait any longer, and figured we'd catch some traditional Alpine music later in the trip. Also, I was concerned with walking up that trail in the dark on our own. So we headed back up the trail. On our way down, we passed a man in full Bavarian tracht complete with Tirolese hat going down. It didn't occur to me before we were back at the pension that obviously other people would have been walking up as well.

Oh, and for the record, was not overly thrilled with the Mozartkugeln, maybe they taste better fresh. We'll have to go back to Salzburg someday and try them again. Czytaj więcej
