DAY 3 - SALZBURG 
UNTERSBERG

The train to Salzburg left from the Ostbahnhof.
I don't know why I have a compulsion to photograph foreign adult businesses.
I bought my ticket at this machine on Saturday morning.
On the way down I tried to get a good photo of the Alps to the south.
It's always difficult to get a good shot through the window of a moving train. I think this one turned out pretty well.
The view makes you want to start yodeling, doesn't it?
It wasn't a packed train. The man in the next seat had just gotten off. He was wearing lederhosen. How Alpine!
This is the train.
The Hauptbahnhof is northeast of the city center. At the station I bought a Salzburg card which paid for transportation on the busses and admission to selected attractions. It was quite a bargain.
This is the cable car that goes up to the top of Untersberg mountain. Untersberg is just south of town and is on the northern edge of the Alps.
This is a closer shot in case you couldn't find it in the previous photo.
Lots of lights and German warnings. At the lower left it says that the temperature at the top is -1° C. That's 30.2° F to you and me. What it doesn't indicate is that it is windy as all get out up there. I'd guess at least 30-40 mph.
Some houses at the bottom of the mountain.
A nearby church.
We're on our way up.
Most of the other people going up were speaking English, either British, American or Canadian.
We're getting higher.
There is a little building on the side of the mountain. When it is socked in with snow, I don't know how anyone would get there. Then again, perhaps no one needs to.
Where we left from.
The station at the top.
There is a path that leads to a sort of a hand car on a cable. It leads...
...to those building down there. I think the big building had a restaurant in it. There are many picnic tables outside.
There is also a sort of a pub or something at the top as well.
Way up there are three crosses. It is the highest point near the station. There is a path, but it was too far to try to navigate in the ice and high winds. At that elevation, I was getting winded walking around too much.
There is a webcam at the station that you can operate from your computer.
I was able to get cellular coverage at the top of the mountain from T-Mobile Austria.
Down there is Salzburg.
From the station at the top looking out and down.
More mountains on the way down.
