On our way to the big Oktoberfest party, we decided to hit Salzburg for a day. We left Linz about noon and got into Salzburg at about 1. We wound our way from the train station to the historical part of the city. Everyone loves the old churches in Europe, so that was our first […]
Will here. I just wanted to do a little teaser post. We’re still in Munich doing the tourist thing. We’re heading back to Linz tomorrow early afternoon arriving around 4PM our time. We’ll have a few errands to do once we get back, but after that we’ll be able to give you some longer updates […]
Well, we got here from Salzburg last night, dropped our stuff off at the hostel and then headed out to the fest. We wandered a bit and looked at all the rides (just looking at them is enough of a thrill for me). Then we got a seat at a beer garden and had a […]
So there is a bit of an internet connection at the hostel in Salzburg, our stop on the way to Munich. Salzburg is in Austria and I believe it was the main setting for the Sound of Music. Anyway, it’s pretty neat. Yesterday, we wandered around a little bit and we walked up a big […]
Well, we’re going to Oktoberfest. We had planned a little more traveling than that, but we ran into issues ordering the rail pass. We’re leaving this morning and going to Salzburg.

Before I forget, I need to mention a few things. First, we bought a TV today. It’ll be nice to take in some culture, watch kid’s shows to learn some German, and have something to hook my Xbox up to. It’s small and cheap, but that’s all we need… and Mary Jo would let me […]
Today’s cheese is the Schmelzkäse-Eckerl. This bad boy is soft cheese. The name is literally “melting cheese”. You can also see it’s pretty good sized. The best part is that it was only a single Euro! Whooo! Cheap cheese! Once you pop it open, you get a bit of a surprise. Forgive the missing pieces, […]
