Salzburg to Munich

Austria really is so green! We went on to Salzburg today & the scenery is still great, rolling hills & forests. Salzburg is a mountainous area & we did a short walking tour of the city centre, then on into the mountains. It reminded me of driving over Arthur's Pass without the Otira Zigzag, all those steep gorges that Jan hated looking down, eh.
The optional today was a trip up a mountain to Eagle's Nest, a Hitler monument, edifice, conference centre? I didn't go, of course. It was bad enough listening to the local guide on the bus making excuses for the blind following of Hitler. The usual 'They didn't know - life was so hard - Hitler gave them work'. Yes, work killing people! Anyway I spent the time in a picturesque little town I wasn't much interested in but I did get a massive cup of tea, lol. A pleasant change from the tiny cups we're often given. The bonus was I got to go down the mountain again then back up to collect the others, then down again. If only I had been driving - I always enjoyed driving to the West Coast. The pity was the time wasted on that Eagle's Nest trip could have been better spent further on.
From Salzburg we drove to Munich, more lovely landscapes, but I was disappointed we didn't have time to see much of the city, v little in fact, just 1 1/2 hours in a dubious part of town with beer gardens. Definitely not my scene at all. No walking tour, no bus drive around the major sights. There was so much more to see! But no more time, all wasted sadly.
Four countries in one day tomorrow!
