We drove through the beautiful Austrian countryside heading for Hallstatt, Austria.
Our next adventure was into the Salzwelten, the old Salt Mines. We took the tram up.
And the view was extraordinary!
We hiked up further and took a trail through the forest, past this mining sculpture into a large building where everyone was asked to put pants and a shirt over their clothing--our mining suits.
Then we walked into the salt mines. Amazing!
We took two long slippery slides to get down out of the mine.
And we rode a train through a low tunnel to end the tour. It was one of the most fun adventures we have had in Europe!
We were really hungry, so we walked into the beautiful town of Hallstatt. Bob and I shared a half chicken from the rotisserie, with french fries. It was hot and delicious!
Then we explored this one-street town nestled against the lake--so charming--with its lovely little shops filled with art.
Even a waterfall!
Bob and I shared this delicious treat from the boulangerie. Yum!
We then drove to a lovely French style farm house at Eich 59, 5310 Keuschen, Austria. Mel and Michael really knew how to pick the best places to stay!
In the morning, the boys went out to see the farm animals and play on the bikes.
Michael and Bob checked out the birds.
