I think that these bread bunnies were one of the cutest things I saw on the trip

An "Easter egg tree"

Mirabell Gardens (again, think Sound of Music when the are singing the "Do a deer" song) with the Hohensalzburg Fortress in the background

The arches that they skip through in the Sound of Music (can you tell that this movie is big here?)

Mozart´s home/museum. Cool place to check out-way better than the museum that is at his birth home (see below).

A cool vegetarian restaurant we had lunch at one afternoon. Good food and inexpensive too!

A funny poster on the wall of the vegetarian restaurant. You´ve got to read the bottom part closely. It cracked me up.

A cool plaque in a graveyard

They had tons of take-away restaurants like this. Lots of seafood which really surprised me since there isn´t a whole lot of ocean nearby.

We had ice cream at this neat little shop and even though it was ice cream, it had a completely different texture. It was much creamier, like yogurt, but light, like sorbet. It was delish whatever it was. :)

This was Mozart´s birth home. The museum was slightly disappointing...it was a bit too "artistic" for me. But we did get to see a couple of his actual violins so that was cool.

How do you get up there?

Diana with traditional Austrian appelstrudel

Since it was Mozart´s 250th birthday anniversary at the beginning of this year, there were tons of these huge balls around the city decorated to celebrate music and the composer himself. This one was the coolest by far. :)

These bouquets, we found out, are typical for Palm Sunday. People buy them and take them with them to church to get them blessed and then they put them in their gardens and supposedly these bunches of at least 7 different plants bring good luck to the crops.
