In Salzburg with Rebeca and visiting Heidi

After breakfast in our hotel, we walked to a nearby market and looked around.  We saw these interesting cabbages in the market.

Surrounded by so much good produce!

What a comfy way to go around the market!

Later, Mirli met Rebeca and I by the Mirabell Gardens at noon.  Guillermo stayed back at the hotel because something in the market seemed to have affected him and he just wasn't feeling that well.  Mirli was already at the agreed upon waiting place when we got there and since she still needed to wait for my second cousin Daniel to get out of school or something,  Rebeca and I decided to go across the street and get some sausages on rolls and cokes for lunch.  We ate that by Mirli's car while we waited for Daniel.
So, once we had picked up Daniel, Mirli drove all of us to Bad Ausee to visit with my cousin Heidi!  It was a very beautiful drive out there (Daniel drove most of the way) - we passed lots of beautiful lakes with picturesque villages on the banks.

We had a very nice visit with Heidi and her husband Andy, and of course Daniel and also her other son Laurence.

Heidi drove us to a lake that was real close to their house.  They are so lucky to have such a beautiful place so close to where they live!

Then we came back to Heidi's house and we ate some fish as we sat around a table and talked a little while.

A nice scene from the car as we were driving back.

Once we got back to Salzburg, Aunt Mirli dropped Rebeca off near our hotel because she wanted to walk across the river to visit the castle.  Aunt Mirli and I went to the hotel, I checked on how Guillermo was and since he was doing fine we decided to go out to a nearby cafe for a little bite to eat.  But it was closed.  She decided to just go home then, and Guillermo and I continued looking for a different cafe but didn't like any we saw so we just bought something to eat in a nearby store and went back to the hotel room.  When Rebeca came back, we went to a restaurant down the block to have dinner.  Our last Wiener Schnitzel on this trip!
