Expectations

Today was an out of town day. Following Rick Steves advice, we headed to Hallstatt, a mountain town pasted to the side of a mountain on a lake. It was swell and all, but after 45 minutes of wondering around and a wonderful trout lunch, we were ready to call it a day. Kind of like going to Long Beach WA. Takes two hours to get there, and you're through it in the blink of an eye. If you're lucky, you'll find a good place to eat, other than Mickey D's. A bit of a letdown...
Wandered home around 16:00... took a siesta... then Dave and I hit the town. Found out this is the last night of the Bach festival, so we had a beer to celebrate just being in Salzburg. Then we found a wonderful Italian restaurant. Lasagna and a jug... Dolcetto Alba... quite nice. Told Rosanne that she must join us there tomorrow night, as it's our last night in Salzburg. Ciao
