The sound of music - We must be in Salzburg

We found the Summerhouse - pity we are not sixteen going on seventeen now. Rolf and Lisl might not have recognised it now - it has been moved to the gardens at Schloss Helbrunn.  





It looks lovely - but you would walk past it without recognising it.

The von-Candlish family tour has reached Austria, and we have a long weekend at a site on the edge of the city. Good if you like cold showers and european spacing between units.  Still, we were in the city, and that is why we were there.

Mozart has a few statues here, and we ate breakfast in a cafe where his family "might" have eaten.  So here are some photos of Salzburg from our weekend.

 Mr Mozart was born here.

Never go back

A long long time ago, in a galaxy far away, Miss G became Mrs C, and the next day, we flew off to spend 10 days in St Wolfgang, in the Austrian lakes.

So here we were in the neighbourhood, and with a litle time to spare, so we took a little trip up over the hills, back to our honeymoon location.


 So what has happened in the last 27 years?  The tacky fairy seems to have visited, and spoilt the place.

Never go back!

Reflective Regensberg

So we are a few days in to the holiday, and are camping just outside Regenburg. When we arrived, No 1 child and I went to book in, and first we had to wake up the little old lady on reception!  She recovered, and was able to take our money and offer us a riverside pitch. 


After a quick setup we headed off into Regensburg to see the sights.  Then back home for a sleep before heading off to Austria.



 I like the reflection of the moon.
