My father's family is from Bad Beuren, and my mother's family is from Saltzburg. So yes, Ich liebe die Berge auch!

Dann verstehe ich das gut ! Too bad there are no significant mountains in Ohio...

Die schönste Szene, die immer in meinem Verstand haftet, ist die Linie der Berge, die, Sie beim Fahren von Munchen zu Saltsburg sehen.

That´s right, down A8 towards Chiemsee, Bad Aibling to your left, the Alps to your right. I used to drive down there twice a week, until they closed Bad Aibling Station in 2003 and moved the equipment elsewhere...

Have you ever ridden the cable car up the mountain just outside of Saltzburg?
What a beautiful site. My mother had edelweiss flowers pressed in a book which she had picked on that mountain when she was a child.
One of my favorite places to visit.

Which one ? There are several cable cars around Salzburg. I did go up to the Hohensalzburg Fortress a couple of times. Beautiful overlook of the town... There are some others on he surrounding mountains as well (I think there is a total of 128 cable cars in the area).
Picking Edelweiss flowers get you into jail these days.
We´ve been going down to Salzburg since 30 years. It didn´t change much. Thank God.

Untersberg. Last time I was there, we spent the day on the mountain, then spent the evening at a B&B in Seekirchen. Lebergnoedel soupe for dinner and lots of Weitzenbeer.
Nichts in dieser Welt mögen einen Weitzenbeer Kater.

Ah, Untersberg. Das ist auf der deutschen Seite, nicht auf der österreichischen.
Weizenbier, or Weissbier as we call it in Bavaria, is my favorite too. Especially the dunkle Weissbier. A Leberknödelsuppe goes perfect with that, along with a couple of frische Brez´n. 
Dang, now I´m hungry....

Been back and forth...
a cupple times. Really liked Germany.
If you look close at the two photos on page 1, they're taken from very nearly the exact spot, some 30-40 years later looks like. The statue looks like it changed a bit and of course, the seasons different, but the rooftops are the same.......
Pretty impressive.....

Yeah, that's what I like about Germany. The buildings (including the roofs) are built to last. It's more expensive to build this way, but houses last a hundret years or longer.

Marketstrasse is almost identical today to what it was when I was there in the '80s. Back then they allowed cars, today it's pedestrian only for the majority of the street -- from just below the Turmkeller, to right above the Isar bridge.

I was there in 2008 (or was it 2007 Mike?) and Marktstr. looked the same but it looked freshly painted and better maintained. One restaurant I used to get a bite now and then from was closed up and empty...

Went back there as they were shutting it down in 93-94. Just made me want to cry...

Ah, I live in Vegas. The Hofbrauhaus is a wonderful place. I was unsure of how authentic it was, but perhaps more than I thought?
