Salzburg: This does not suck

So we've been in Salzburg for two days now, and all I can say is wow. We get to a city, think it's the best thing ever, move to the next only to find it equally spectacular. Personally, I like this the best. I love the layout of the city. It is built into the mountain side, so it's a semi-circle in shape. Doing this put the city on layers, so there's a main street and a small alley going towards the mountain that leads to another main street closer to the mountain. Such a cool design. 

On our first day, we explored some crypts. We found a grave from the 5th century! Literally in the mountain! Totally awesome. Below is a picture of the tombstone. 

We also had some time exploring. A group of us found a music shop that had a "baby trombone". It was essentially a slide trumpet, but we're calling it a baby trombone. Below is a picture. There is video somewhere of Annalise and I playing it. It was only $324 USD! I want it. 

So, yeah. Salzburg is pretty legit.
