    30. Salzburg, Austria

    July 15, 2024 in Austria ⋅ ⛅ 81 °F

    I wish we could have spent a little more time out of the city and in the Lake District of Salzburg, which we got a brief taste of on the SoM tour. I think there were six lakes, and they were all beautiful and not overrun by tourists like Tahoe. But, time is limited, and we had to be satisfied with exploring the city during our last few hours here. A few pix attached...

    Btw - this city of 150k accommodates around 1 million tourists a year, 300k of which are credited with coming to Salzburg solely to experience the Sound of Music history.
