9/2025 – Munich and Salzburg

We made a 2 week visit to Munich and Salzburg with friends, Steve and Christina. Munich and Oktoberfest was the first stop – fun as always!

Steve and Mark – “Prost”!
Christina and Mark – “Prost” again.

My favorite city in Europe, Salzburg, was the next stop. We took the train from Munich to Salzburg; we spent 4 days visiting some favorite locations including the Augustiner Monastery for their beer and a picnic in the garden. One day we all took a tour to a salt mine – not the same one we visited 35 years ago. The city was celebrating St. Ruppert’s festival with music, crafts, beer, sausages.
