Chatting with pfalcon last nite about austria brought back lots of fond memories at salzburg. I browsed thru my post list hoping to get a summary of Austria which i can briefly share some of mine, only to realise that it wasnt there. Having nothing much to share about my monotonous hectic schdule, do allow me to escort you to a short trip in austria =)
One of the most exciting part of travelling abroad is nonetheless food!
 |
| Mushroom gouloash with dumpling.. Dumpling is similar to our rice. It's actually a Hungarian dish if im not mistaken.. |
 |
Snitzels..
 |
| The all-time favourite dessert - pancakes! |
|
Not forgetting the setting for the Sound of Music, a musical which almost each and every child watched - Salzburg! I actually watched it hundreds of times until i can recall almost everything and replay it. Anywa, the most remarkable one is the scene whereby the children sang "Do Re Mi" surrounding the fountain. Unfortunately, chiewyi n juanjuan refused to imitate the musical, leaving me alone posing lol..
Anyway it's called the Mirabell Gardens :)
The front view of it..
Im not sure.. But everything looks so familiar here, with shadows of the Von Trapp family..
And of course the close knits and company of awesome friends =)
Can someone tell me why are our bridges and rivers so different from others?
Songs like "The sound of music", "My fav things" and "So long, farewell" keep humming in my mind throughout the trip. Omg i felt like flying to europe now, so much! Ironically, despite all the whinning about homesickness, inability to drive around, freezing cold winter, quiet nights, i miss those days badly. To queall any raising eyebrows, we agree that this applies to everyone no matter how much you hated uni days before. It's a valuable experience of lifetime.
