Salzburg!
Initially wanted to travel to Salzburg with my mum's Eurail pass. First class with 2 free days left. But, the Germans have this weird culture. They don't send a letter to you if your name is not on the letter box. That means, even if the address is correct, they won't drop it into the box that's right in front of them. OK.. I find this extremely dumb but still have to accept their different culture. SO.. I didn't receive my first class tickets so I had to take the slow trains and leave the next morning. Then the pig in me made me wake up late the next morning and we missed the train we wanted to catch. But then again.. look at who was I travelling with and you'll understand why we missed the train and had to take the later one but longer hours. However that wasn't half as bad as the return trip. We read the Fahrplanauskunft (Travel information) wrongly and took the later train but ALOT longer too. 7.07 hours! OMG..
At the Schloss Hellbrunn and Die Wasserspiele (Hellbrunn Castle and The Trick Fountain)
...
got SOOooo drenched at the trick fountain because I was standing in the way of the water most of the time..
View of the big big world from Untersberg. Feel like I'm looking at a picture from some textbook.
See those mountains at the back? Can you imagine dancing and singing "The hills are alive...." there?
Ya.. the Darth Vader who sleeps with his mouth open facing upwards.
View from somewhere near the hostel.. The sky was purple and orange! The camera and photo don't do justice to the amazing view. :(
A speedometer that even tells you how fast you walk. Haha.. 4km/hr for me!
