Travelling Between Innsbruck and Salzburg

In July last year we were travelling in a motor-home in Austria. Our camping site in Innsbruck had us up among the clouds and we saw some spectacular country as we headed towards Salzburg. At one place we came upon a lovely roadside shrine. We saw quite a lot of these in our travels. When we reached Salzburg and found a caravan park we were next to an open area which hang-gliders used as a landing site. We watched many drift this way and that above us as they manoeuvred their way down to earth.

We saw some great scenery and I loved the shrines which would suddenly appear.

I love the views of the mountains and the pines and spruces, I am definitely a mountain girl.

I can imagine someone falling in love with the mountains. And we had such sunny weather which added to its charm.

@JudyEv We are having sunny days since the beginning of November, this is unusual and a bit weird, this is not a Swiss weather in late Autumn.

@LadyDuck I wonder what the future will bring weather-wise. Everyone seems to be saying that the weather isn't really 'normal' for their area.

Beautiful scenery over there. I have a friend in Toronto who is from that area.

I wonder if your friend misses that type of country or is Toronto something similiar? Pardon my ignorance. :)

I love the pictures of the mountains in the clouds. They are really breathtaking.

Our caravan park was almost in the clouds. It was quite different to most places we've been.

I hope you get the chance to view the slideshow. It is hard to explain the beauty of the place.

I found Austria and Germany to be quite pretty. And the people I met were nice as well.

We found the people very friendly. The few times we got a bit stuck with something people went out of their way to help.

The mountains are just lovely, What breathtaking sights! I don't think I would be hang gliding but it might be fun to watch them.

You could see them all coming in from one direction then manoeuvring round and round till they landed in the paddock. Occasionally two would be on the one 'umbrella' or whatever it's called.

@judyev I wouldn't have been surprised if Julie Andrews had popped up in one of those pictures..

I was waiting for her to appear but had to be content with blasting out a few bars of my own.
