Last summer, I sat in a Vienna music hall, listened to Mozart's music being played by a 6 piece ensemble. No speakers, perfect acoustics. One of the most moving events of my life. I ran through the covered arch where Julie Andrews ran. I played on the stairs at Mirabelle Gardens. It was a wonderful trip! And I'd love to go back again someday!

I was in Salzburg with some family last year. My Aunt, Grandmother, my Cousin and I were in Europe for 10 days. When we were in Salzburg, we saw the birthplace of Mozart. It was just fascinating, since I love listening to classical music. Learned so much about this great composer.

I took a trip around Germany, while in Munich we could take a train to Salzburg. I wanted to go, but nobody else wanted to go, and I didn't really want to go by myself... I was only 18 at the time. I wish I would have. :( I can't recall the other option and what the group and I did. I think it was several options. Whatever it was, the only thing I remember is not going to Salzburg. :(

The moment we stepped out from our hotel into the market of the old city, me and my both exclaimed, in unison, wow... . It has history, mystic, old world charm, green meadows, hills, palaces, castles, music and it's legendary composer. What more can you ask for?

[@JohnAckerman93]

I was in Europe last June with some family. We visited Germany and Austria. We went to Salzburg for a day, and it was absolutely beautiful! We went and saw the birthplace of Mozart while we were there. I’m a lover of classical music, so this was right up my alley. It was a dream of mine since I was young to go to Europe, and it was just incredible to see a dream come true.
