In 2003, the day after a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner with the Sims and the Martins, we caught an early morning train from Weiden,Germany to Salzburg, Austria. I almost cancelled because Bennett, our lab, had an eye infection and I didn’t want to leave him. Our neighbor, Stephanie, agreed to take him to the vet first thing in the morning and, much to FM’s relief, I reluctantly agreed to go. Of course, I called several times that weekend to check Bennett’s medical status 🙂
Off we went to Mozart’s birthplace and the city where “The Sound of Music” was filmed. There was a slight delay on our train ride ~ FM thought he had time to get a beer and a bratwurst in Regensburg where we had a 15 minute connection but the train took off without us. He has yet to live that one down ~ FG likes to remind him about that ordeal everytime we take a train.
It was so cold the entire weekend but we walked the old city, road the incline to the castle and enjoyed all of it. We especially liked the gorgeous Christmas market which looked so magical at night with the lights shining bright.
Seems whatever city we’re in, the mimes are always so sweet to FG. This Salzburg mime was no exception:
Let me know what you think...
