Our last day in Salzburg so we decided to find the last few Sound of Music spots. We headed out in dubious weather and came across a storm – luckily there was a sky dome (part of an art installation) available. It has a hole in the ... Read more >

Looked like rain had set in but it did not matter as our first point of call was indoors. The Spanish Riding School with its famous Lipizzanier stallions was amazing. Both horses and riders were exceptional, the venue was special, and our ... Read more >

This morning was foggy! We walked to Margaret Island which is in the middle of the Danube and a great oasis. Rented two monster rollers for a ride around the park. As we were there before the crowd we got to hoon around on these electric ... Read more >
