Austria- it has my vote as the prettiest place I visited!
My cute little snail friend. I think I named him Fred but they wouldn't let me keep him.

The Salt Mines!We dressed in these white suits to slide down these wooden slides! Sounds weird but was totally awesome!
There was an underground lake, a creepy video, and ceilings low enough to make you glad you weren't a giant.
And Yes, I make the same face in EVERY picture.
This is the view but it is blocked by the clouds!

The Sound of Music Gazebo. Much smaller in real life. Now I can see how Lisel leaped across the benches- even in high heels.

More Sound Of Music places. If you have seen it, you will recognize it!
We are cool in our VANS!

The cemetary that they may have filmed for the Sound of Music. Maybe. Everyone was kind of unclear on that point.
I think this was before all 50 of us held hands, skipping around the fountain sing "Do-Re-Mi" at the top of our lungs. Crazy Americans.

Cute little dwarf/gnome things. This would also be before we talked to the crazy drunk man who kept insisting that we spoke German.

Me looking thoughtful.

Mauthausen. A sobering experience.

Czech Republic! Prague! I loved Prague!
287 steps to the top of this tower.
In KFC. Everyone else had these sick chicken sandwiches from a vendor that made them sick. I even felt bad for not eating something local.
