http://italy2012sept.blogspot.com/2012/09/salzburg-day-2.html
France, Italy and Austria 2012. Sunday, September 16, 2012. SALZBURG Hohensalzburg Fortress and Hellbrunn Palace. September 16, 2012. Back to Salzburg for another day of touring. We decided to park outside of the city center and take the bus into town. The bus rides were included with our Salzburg card and this plan worked out very well. Our first stop in the city today was the imposing Hohensalzburg Fortress, which looms over the city and can be seen from just about everywhere. Then it was time to get o...

France, Italy & Austria 2012: FINAL REPORT
http://italy2012sept.blogspot.com/2012/09/final-report.html
France, Italy and Austria 2012. Sunday, September 23, 2012. The drive from Bruck to Augsburg was comfortable and scenic. We went by the famous Krimmel Waterfalls. And admired the huge volumes of water plummeting down three tiers of falls. Then north into Germany. Down out of the mountains and across the rolling. Wheat fields and on to Munich. The traffic was light until we got on the ring road around Munich and then, north of town, we ran into. A terrible backup. The ambulances and firetrucks were. Sunda...

http://italy2012sept.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
France, Italy and Austria 2012. Friday, August 31, 2012. GOODBY NEW FRIENDS, HELLO OLD FRIEND. August 31, 2012. Lunch of steak, fries and salad. The enormous platter was overflowing with food, so we were stuffed when we paid up and left. We then took off, again avoiding Switzerland, and headed southwest to go to Grenoble to visit our longtime friends, Jose and Marielle Flatot-LeBohec, and their two sons, Victor and Charles.

France, Italy & Austria 2012: SALZBURG
http://italy2012sept.blogspot.com/2012/09/salzburg.html
France, Italy and Austria 2012. Saturday, September 15, 2012. September 15, 2012. Well, I have to say that Salzburg is a stunning city. I loved every moment of our visit. We walked up the massive regal staircase, the first of 7329 staircases to walk up in the Salzburg area, as we listened to the audio guide. Today the Residenz is furnished with decor and furniture from the period of Archbishop Wolf Detrich, around the end of the 17th century. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). OFF TO LAGO DI GARDA.

France, Italy & Austria 2012: WASP OLYMPICS
http://italy2012sept.blogspot.com/2012/09/wasp-olympics.html
France, Italy and Austria 2012. Tuesday, September 4, 2012. Teaching Wasps the art of synchronized swimming. Way too much time on our hands! Coaching Wasps and Yellowjackets on the backstroke. The next morning we got up after a very comfortable sleep, made our coffee and again went to the deck for breakfast. That yellowjacket is in the liquid and can no longer escape the soda bottle. Here comes another customer right now, so I have to stop writing and concentrate on my actions. Day two of our R&D project:.

France, Italy & Austria 2012: A DISSERTATION ON EUROPEAN MILK BOXES
http://italy2012sept.blogspot.com/2012/09/a-dissertation-on-european-milk-boxes.html
France, Italy and Austria 2012. Wednesday, September 5, 2012. A DISSERTATION ON EUROPEAN MILK BOXES. I've been traveling in Europe for the past 25 years now, and have yet to learn the secret to opening these one liter cardboard milk boxes without spilling the milk. Somehow I missed the Rick Steves PBS special on this topic. Some of the methods I've tried are:. 3 And in sheer desperation I sometimes stab it with a pencil. Geralynn just ignores the printed lines (so unlike her! September 15, 2012 at 9:54 AM.

France, Italy and Austria 2012. Tuesday, September 4, 2012. OFF TO LAGO DI GARDA. Sept 4-6, 2012. The next morning we met our Brit friends again at breakfast and talked about home exchanging, the part of England they come from and various travels we all have enjoyed. We said our goodbyes, packed up and headed down the hill and along our route to our next destination, the Aker’s vacation home at Lago di Garda. Along the narrow, dusty and rutted lanes we drove, taking the turns prescribed by Trexie and fin...

France, Italy & Austria 2012: THE DOLOMITES
http://italy2012sept.blogspot.com/2012/09/the-dolomites.html
France, Italy and Austria 2012. Sunday, September 9, 2012. September 9, 2012. We followed the peage through Belluno and at Pieve di Cadore we turned west and started up into the mountains. All along the road from Pieve to Cortina was a very nice bike path. As we moved uphill into the Dolomite Mountains I began to gasp, and ooooh and aaaaah. Switchbacks we finally arrived in the little town of Danta di Cadore. In the morning we were awakened by a gorgeous sunrise over the mountains. We packed and dawd...

France, Italy & Austria 2012: BELLA BAITA
http://italy2012sept.blogspot.com/2012/09/bella-baita.html
France, Italy and Austria 2012. Monday, September 3, 2012. September 3, 2012. At the village of Villa Perosa we turned up the mountain and took the long, steep and winding narrow road up and up to our B&B for the night- Bella Baita. As we drove up and up we occasionally saw encouraging signs that we were on the right route and Bella Baita was ahead. Finally we arrived and were reassured to see a big sign that said Benvenuto, Bella Baita. September 15, 2012 at 9:43 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
