Lunedi Lunacy

We are preparing for our annual - and possibly last - trip to Salzburg for the Pfingstenfestspeil. Yes I know we've said that before but there are so many other places on the bucket list that we feel we must turn our attention to in the next few years.

But that is a subject for another time as we confirm our hotel reservations and get our train tickets in order.  In the meantime friend Michael thought he would send this along as a helpful aide-memoir as we head off to Austria and Germany.



And who says they don't have a sense of "ha ha"?

April  28 - 1503: The Battle of Cerignola is fought. It is noted as the first battle in history won by small arms fire using gunpowder.

I never thought I would travel through Germany on my own in my 'old' days... not speaking a word of this complicated language!Have a very nice time in Salzburg! (thank you for stopping by, I always enjoy so much reading you. I'll be seeing Mariella D. in Napoli pour la Fête de la Musique!)
