27.2.2011: A Day in Salzburg

In Salzburg, Austria- day trip

Not too early of a start of the day, relatively speaking.  Especially since I am always at work by 6am.  Why did I sign up for such early shifts??  Crazy me.

But let's get back to the trip now.  Hmmm....  not really in the writing mode....  I should at least make notizen again...  Ich weiss nicht....  Muede....  glaube ich.

Woke up around 7:30, showered und so weiter
Zuerst-- breakfast at hostel, delicious german continental.  Yum yum.

NOW WRITTEN ON 3.3.2011
10am- at train station, bought ticket
group of 16 MK (or former) and Lee (from UM, not MK)
1)Dan, 2)Daryl, 3)Blair, 4)Theresa, 5)Ryan, 6)Matt, 7)Amanda Stacer, 8)Molly, 9)Alexandra, 10)Mark, 11)Chen, 12)Jo, 13)Albert, 14) Jacob, 15)Nat, 16).....

We arrived in Salzburg around 12:30, more or less, then went to the bus station and bought ein Einzelfaehrtkarte to get to the city center.  From there we split into two groups- one concerned with food and the other going on a tour led by Ryan.  Unfortunately the choice was made for me, since Dan went with the tour group.  Therefore I went with the food group to a restaurant called Restaurant Bologna Zum Mohren.  And just by chance- the other group ended up showing up at the same restaurant!  I had a hard time deciding rather to order a Wiener Schnitzel or Kaesespaetzle.  I ended up going with Kaesespaetzle, but regretted my decision since other people at our table ordered the Wiener Schnitzel and it looked really good (tasted good too- sample from Jo).  At least my Malibu Orange was super tasty.

After we finished eating, the groups split, and then the guys split off from us.  Us girls went to a couple of souvenir shops.  Then Daryl split to get money, and I split to take pictures.  I spent a couple hours walking around and just taking pictures and window shopping.  Fortunately- I found a rubber duck dressed as Mozart!  It was kinda pricey, but definitely is one to add to my collection.

Danach I went to Cafe Bazar (the same one that we went to the last time we went to Salzburg for the day).  I was going to wait there until our meeting time.  By chance I met up with the other group (tourgroup).  I went to the bathroom, and by time I came back it was too late to order- the cafe was closing at 6pm.  Ah!  The perils of traveling in Europe!

Confusion on when we were meeting-- change of times throughout the day.  But made a decision, we waited, other group came, all except for Daryl.  Made it to the train with only a few minutes to spare.  When we got back to the Muenchen Hauptbahnhof, we split, and some of us ate food.  I had my first Doener of the trip (and a Coke Zero).  Went back to hostel and went to bed.
