12/17/19-12/19/19 Salzburg Austria and the Christmas markets

Quick easy trip from Munich to Salzburg, one hour 45 minutes on the DB train. The weather is beautiful, sunny and highs in the 50’s. We can actually see the mountains Easy bus trip to our Airbnb, a one bedroom apartment, clean with easy check in and bus services. Salzburg has a great bus system, buses everywhere and 8-10 minutes between buses.

Ok, checked in, walking tour, old town

Seven miles later with darkness falling, we make it to our favorite beer hall in the world, Augustiner Bräu Mulln

Ok, remember we visited here in May, it was snowing and freezing rain, not now sunny and almost 60

Ok, the main reason we are here, Christmas markets! The entire town is decorated for Christmas with thousands of beautiful Christmas trees and Christmas shops everywhere, wonderful.

The Christmas booths all sell different stuff, it’s so beautiful

Food booths also😎

The drink here is mulled wine (spiced wine)

The food of Salzburg is Bosna, French bread roll, onions, sausage and curry powder, delicious

Ok, it’s getting late off to Stiegl, the biggest brewery in Austria, delicious

Ok, off on the next day for a walking tour of the Hellbrunn Palace for more Christmas markets and some Sound of music stuff ( Tour Director Cindy loves the Sound of music)

Ok, Tour Director Cindy is in full go mode, we walk the skyline of the city

Last night, one last visit to our favorite beer hall, Augustiner

Ok, I’ll admit it, I wasn’t to keen on Salzburg and the Christmas markets, I was wrong. It’s wonderful and the weather was awesome. Lovely trip

Off on the train to outside of Munich, Gröbenzell. We’re here two and a half weeks for the holidays

Wiedersehen!
