Austria! Salzburg! Weisse Taube Hotel

I stayed in this very steady hotel called Weisse Taube. Apparantly it means west something. This is a very steady hotel! Its decoration follows the traditional German design, layout, carpet, curtains, furniture. I actually hope my dear is here. So that she can enjoy the nice room, great and beautiful place, and the fresh, cool air from the Alps.





My room is Great! I liked it a lot. Look at the video! This was taken on the 2nd (or 3rd) day. Old, traditional german decoration. I had never, in my lifetime, lived in a house with such deco and settings! It feels like Heidi! Gives you a feeling that you will see the Alps (which is actually behind the hotel) once you pop your head out of the window.

Every morning, I get to eat..... Austrian Breakfast! Look at the charming cafeteria... Wow! Every morning they serve this! There are so many different types of hams, bread and cheese! It tried almost all every morning, and went to the seminar, full of energy and carbohydrates! By then by the fifth morning, I actually dread going down for breakfast. I kind of missed mee pok.

Austria!

The Hills are really alive!

I can't believe it! I'm here. Really ar? I just name the motto of this blog, the hills are so alive!... and in the end I really came here. This Sound of Music country, this Heidi country. This is a nice place! Probably the most nicest country in Europe. There is big green mountains, with wooden houses (those you see in the Heidi cartoon series, a long time ago japanese anime), old medival towns, cobberstone streets, lovely flowers with mositure on their leafs, big cathedrals, and bells that chimes every interval. It is so nice! Plus yesterday, Mid-Autumn Festival, the moon very big, and superimposed above the big cathedral! Very very nice!

I took this little aircraft, that flies very low. You can see meadows and forested areas, little cottages, towns that are mae up of cottages, the Danube river, and city that have medival blocks running along the river. These are beautiful places! I only saw these in postcards and TV.

The air is really cool, and so fresh! There isn't a tinge of traffic output smell, industrial smell, in the air. It is fantastic! If I lived here long enough, I think my sinus problem will be cured! Very steady! I think this is a good place for honeymoon. I recommend that!

I'll took so many photos and videos. I'll get them uploaded soon.
So many sights and experience to share. I'll take lots of videos to show the wind and fast flowing pace of the river.

There are 2 huge fortresses on the 2 mountains (actually rocky hill) on both north and south of the city. So enchanting, so beautiful. I'll try to visit the place in the next few days. :)
