Saturday, the first day of new-found freedom, was beautiful. We assembled the troops after a breakfast at Frauenschuh and decided to go into old-town Salzburg for the day. We walked around town in the morning, and wound up at my favorite restaurant, The Humboldt, for lunch. And SUNSHINE. After lunch, the kids and LouAnn agreed to take Annette, Laurie, and Jon to the Salzburg Fortress. Papa and I stayed back.  It was a perfect day to just take it EASY, as I was supposed to do!

The kids loved being with their aunts and uncle, and especially that they got to be their TOUR GUIDES, since we’d already been to the Fortress the week before.

This man just had surgery!

This goober was fishing Euro coins out of the fountain and putting them in his pocket!!!  The kids were properly horrified.
