More Europe

Needless to say, while in Europe for 10 days last year, I shot a lot of photos. I came back with something like 18 rolls of film. That's a lot of shooting, at least for me. So I figured that I would continue the current theme today, and add some more of train-related photos from our trip. I'm feeling generous again, and today I'm adding two shots from Prague.

The first is a shot of another train, sitting idle in the Prague station, a couple of tracks over from where we were on the train waiting to head to Vienna and on to Salzburg. This particular train seems much more dilapidated than many of the other trains that we saw and were on. But it seemed pretty cool sitting there.

This second shot is the sunset as we arrive back in to Prague from Budapest. For our trip, we had planned to start in Prague, head to Salzburg (via a day trip in Vienna), go back to Vienna for one night, then on to Budapest, before returning to Prague for a couple of nights. We then had an overnight in London, just long enough to be able to fly back to LAX at the right time on a Saturday evening.

Of course, the plans changed upon arrival in Salzburg, and we ended up adding an extra night in that fine city instead. And I am so glad that we did. The hotel that we stayed at was great, the city itself was beautiful, and we got to enjoy a day trip to Innsbruck. In Salzburg, we enjoyed riding bikes for a day that we rented from our hotel owners. It was a great way to get around and see some more of Salzburg that we probably would not have been able to otherwise, and made for an enjoyable experience.


*** Due to problems uploading to blogger, the second photo has not posted. I will attempt to post it again later on this same blog page. ***
