Salzburg Austria - March 19th

The previous night was another scary one. I had my second low blood sugar episode, on this trip. I woke up covered in sweat and reality felt like a dream. I knew instantly what was going on. I dug into my suitcase and pulled out a tube of emergency carbs. It tasted like fruit jelly. I toweled off and fell back into bed, exhausted. When I woke, I felt fine. 109 for a test reading.

Up early and out to get on the train I reserved. Just a quick breakfast. Its 7 am and there is no one eating. The hotel owner has a funny interpretation for a 'very busy weekend.' I was on the train by 8 am for my day in Salzburg.

The city has a castle on a hill overlooking the city:





On the other side of the river (west or north side?) is another walled area:





It was another sunny day - a little cold when you were in the shade, but the sun felt warm and I was walking around trying to find caches. It was a Sunday, so most of the shops were closed. Fine by me, I only wanted souvenirs anyway.

Mozart lived here. Nice city to live in. How he died poor, I'll never understand.











Even though most everything was closed, I did find an Asian restaurant that made a killer chicken curry dish and had large beers too. My train brought me back to Munich for my last night. Not much to say. After one week on the road, I was starting to feel at home. I was getting used to the rhythm and my tasks were getting easier to accomplish. Good thing, 'cause I was off to Zurich in the morning.
