A call from Hari, immediately in U6 to his house. 1 hour later we were in RB (Regional Bahn) to Salsburg Hbf.11:46 train. The tickets concept here is cool, we got a partner karte, Bayern, 24EUR, which means u can travel in any transport inside Bavaria till 6:00 the next morning. superb train journey... man Germany is beautiful!
Salsburg is not too far into Austria, its like Chennai in TamilNadu. we were greeted in the station by Mr ## W# and his girlfriend. (slight CBT) usually they say welcome, but in here, its usually "27 deg, no showers forcasted, we r lucky to have u on a perfect weather".
And then the walking started... Mozart's residence, Sound of Music, Mirabell Gardens, Castles on mountain tops. more walking, view from the top of cliffs, 5 * hotels on hill tops, photos coming soon. 5 hours of walking later (atleast 15 kms, pew) we ended up in a roof top restaurant. we ordered a seizi each, its fanta+cola, supera irundhudhu! Walner's gf ordered a choco cake, some Austrian speciality. looked good, so i ordered one as well, slightly costly(if slightly meant Taj range). We were talking for a while about Hari's excapades in Africa.
Another walk to his car, on the banks of Salsa... Bosco...!!! , we were off to aioo, i forgot the name, see. A beautiful lake with mountains all around. sights like this, and german imm remove everything, there were couples all around, me the only loner :(( :(( :(( . Later (about 7) we dropped his gf off (she stays in Salsburg) and caught AutoBahn 8 to Muenchen (Munich in German). Germany has no speed limits, and at the speed we were going, (avg 120 kmph, slow fiat car) there were cars, porche, BMW, Mercedes, which were over taking us on the parallel lane in pew speed. then there was the unusual traffic jam, because a car had crashed, but there were no signs of an accident when it was cleared in 20 min. so totally it took us some 1hr 45 min for 130kms.
Anantha's house straight, ketkave vendam, ahhh... keerai sambar + carrot curry, what taste!
Crash, up, brush, office, blogging!
