So Rome was fun and everything went pretty smoothly, except for a few incidents which I will talk about in person :) The ferry ride from Napoli(Naples) to the island of Ischia was magnificent. From rome, it was a 6 hour drive to Venice, which blew us all away with its beautiful mix of ancient and modern building styles. A wonderful water taxi ride followed and we finally settled into our hostel in the night. The next day, we started out to Innsbruck, Austria, which has become famous for hosting the winter olympics. It was amazing fun to be back in the Alpine mountains again and seeing all those snow clad peaks tower upon us. After spending a couple of hours at Innsbruck, we headed to salzburg, the home of the dancing master Mozart himself. The ancient castle at Salzburg was a big treat and the icing on the cake was the visit to Mozarts house, atleast for me :). Due to some unavoidable circumstances, we could not visit Munich where we had planned a visit to the Bavaria Motor Works factory (BMW in short :)).
After spending the night at Salzburg, we headed to Vienna which is where I am writing this blog from. It is a beautiful place full of Castles, Churches and Cafe's. Did I mention we visited the Leopold Cafe in Vienna? That was one heck of an experience. After this, we leave for Budapest, Hungary via Bratislava. That should be a fun drive.
More coming.
