Austria day one

So our inexpensive hotel is a ways from the city and so we have already had some adventures getting to and from church and back to the hotel. We got lost on the way to church and luckily (or tender mercy) an empty taxi passed us (especially in this area on a Sunday morning), and he took us close to the church where we spotted some members and followed them the rest of the way. After church some guy in a huge rush asked us what our plans were and if we knew what we were doing, we said we didn't know and no, and so before he had to run to a meeting he pulled out a map and gave it to us. As we thanked him and walked out we pulled out the map and started walking, after a block or so some utahns we had met at church (2 couples that were doing a road trip through switzerland and Austria) stopped and asked if we needed a ride and where we were going, we answered yes and we have no idea. So we guessed that we would like to go the center of town and they took us there. They were really awesome and we will be forever thankful for their kindness and consideration in picking us up.

On the way back Michelle figured out how to navigate the bus system and she got us safely back to our hotel, where we can give our feet and minds a nice rest in preparation for some Salzburg sightseeing tomorrow.

Below Michelle sits pleasantly waiting for our bus to come.
