A (very)Full Day in Salzburg

I really should warn you I may go on a bit………! 
Breakfast on the 15th floor with fantastic views all round - lots of folk grabbing their chances for photos including hubby!!

including the railway station below

Breakfast was pretty good too! It was good to see the sun rising!
We had bought a 24 hour ticket the day before that began on our first use so we walked a bit so that we could use it on the Saturday!
Our first stop was the Museum and Stiftkirche

Then it was coffee time - thanks to Sioux I knew where to head - Cafe Tomaselli - once Mozart's local caff!

As promised there was the cake lady

I had chosen my cake

Now this is where I was really good - we had agreed that on occasions I would be happy to have a taste of hubby's cake(I'm diabetic T2 and had promised my nurse that I would try to be sensible - more of the nurse in another post!)so I had the pointy end - it was yummy!
Then off for a walk - to the funicular railway! The pass included this so why not?

I loved this display

and this ornate door

Back down the mountain and a bite to eat then off to have a wander through a cemetery 

So peaceful and beautiful - then off to find lovely little alleyways!

Lots of decorated eggs - not my thing - I did buy some fabric ornaments though

The Austrians celebrate Autumn in style - lots of colourful displays everywhere!

Following hubby I realised that the men at the side of him were in traditional dress, some of the women too, but couldn't get a clear shot!

We noticed that although we thought it warm - 21 degrees - most of the locals wore jackets! They also put up umbrellas at a few spots of rain. 

Time for coffee and cake in a lovely partially enclosed alleyway

Not upset, just laughing because I wanted yet another photo

Thank You!!

We had something interesting to look at while we had our rest

We also visited Mozarts Birthplace, yes it was a bit commercialised but I enjoyed it - just can't remember whether it was before or after coffee!!!
It was getting darker by this time so we continued wandering the alleyways till we came to this

We were standing by the pedestrian entrance - couldn't resist seeing the other side of the  tunnel

Hmmm!

By the time we had walked back were getting hungry so headed to an Austrian restaurant - there were queues and we were asked if we minded sharing a table and ended up having our meal with a couple from Minnesota! They were slightly ahead of us so I ordered a Cheese Dumpling platter on the lady's recommendation, which should have had a mixed leaf salad but seeing that she had vegetables and me really HATING mixed leaves I asked for the same!
It was delicious!

  

Delicious - but so filling, our dining companion gave up on hers too but we did eat all the veggies - no room for me to have dessert but hubby had chicken and a dessert, he did give me a little taste too!!

So, time to catch a tram back to the hotel, packing to do and an early night - we had something we had to do the next day before we left Salzburg…..

Thanks for looking, Chris

Linking to Elizabeth and T is for Tuesday - two coffees and cakes in one day must be good!!!

I am am still on catch up with looking at and commenting on blogs, having been away with our grandchildren last week, please forgive me!
