Day 6 Annies birthday

The highlight today was undoubtedly our lunch stop at the family run guesthouse/restaurant at Himmelbauer.  Located on the edge of an impossibly steep  high point looking down the length of the Moll Valley, the buildings are one of a kind. The food was delicious and was served by the owners three beautiful daughters dressed in drindls, the traditional Austrian dress (wench dresses).
Sorry, no photos of the waitresses.
PS. I hope you are aware that if you click on the photos they should expand to full screen and then you can scroll though them.

Finished up in Vienna with a good meal and boutique beers from a local pub in a lovely town square. Caught the fast train to Salzburg this morning. It reached speeds of up to 230kmph and got us there in time for an early lunch and stroll around the old centre.  The main plaza was the meeting point for a classic car rally. Thought Will in particular would like some of these photos . More photos and narrative of fortresses, churches and narrow cobbled streets tomorrow.

12 more hours and we wil be on our way. We travelled by train and bus today through spectacular scenery and incredible mountains. The afternoon was spent looking around the town, watching motorbikes of all shapes and sizes roll in. We are next to the Grossglockner High Alpine Road, a famous and very popular road classed as one of the best roads in the world. Another beautiful church that overlooks a graveyard for mountaineers. We poked our head into the 130 year celebrations for volunteer firefighters complete with oompa band. *make fun in mouth* the slogan for the pub we went to last night

Rome

I used to dislike spending much money on accommodation, far better to spend it on food and beer. But as the colour of my hair has changed, so too has my appreciation for air conditioning, good location, views and room to swing the cat. With this in mind we decided to book a nice place to spend the last 4 days of our amazing trip and we have not been disapointed. The apartment, booked though airbnb is fantastic, even better than we had hoped. Great location, in the Monti district, lots of narrow lanes, restaurants, bars, and the best gelateria in Rome immediately below us. It is much bigger than we expected, has a balcony, and cool terrazzo floors. Rome is special. The Colosseum, the Parthenon and the Vatican deserve their place at the head of the bucket list but there is much more to this city. It seems around every corner there is yet another ruin or church or outrageously flamboyant building. And crammed in between them are dozens of bars, coffee shops, restaurants and clothes sho...
