The Hills are Alive with the Sound of Music

A few weeks ago my buddy Aaron and I took a train to Salzburg for a few days. In case you didn't know, Salzburg is where The Sound of Music was filmed, and that's its big tourist draw. They have an entire tour that takes you to a bunch of the places used in the movie:

The "house" used as the back of the Von Trapp mansion, and the lake they fall in. This is actually like a science research center

The gazebo - moved from it's original location because all the scientists got tired of having tourists around their building all the time


Fountains/Gardens used in the "do rae mi" scene


The Sound of Music stuff was cool to see, but the city alone is pretty awesome



And the tour took us up into the countryside of Austria, which is amazing



These pics were taken on my iphone with the autostitch app - I highly recommend it
