After our wonderful day trip to Hitler's Eagle's nest, we took the 1 hour train back to Salzburg which where our Hostel was. North of Berchtesgaden and 150 KM east of Munich, Germany, Salzburg is home to a few main attractions, such as the birthplace and residence of Mozart, Festung Hohensalzburg Castle and numerous places around town used for the famous film "The Sound of Music".We did not spend much time with the local attractions because both Andy and I needed to prepare to go our separate ways as our 2007 European trip is coming to an end. Andy wants to pursue a deeper cultural shocking experience by going to Africa and I need to head back to Hanoi, Vietnam to see my girlfriend and to help her with the remains of her Canadian Student Visa Application.
Funny, most of our euro dollars were spent on quickly made kabobs and surfing in the Internet cafe as most of the preparation works required access to airline websites, online banking, emails, and using skype to contact the people we needed to contact. Later, at night we would go and check out the local breweries and tried various German-Austrian local made beer and eat bratwurst or Currywurst dinners before heading to bed.
