22 October 2021 Salzburg: Breakfast and a walk around the grounds

 


Above is the view from our room this fine morning.  We went downstairs and had a grand breakfast.  Our favorite associate is named Viola.  She served us our welcome drinks and  dinner on our first day here.  She was also helping serve us breakfast.  This woman is everywhere and we love it.  She is currently studying Hotel and Service at the University in Innsbruck.  She has been at the Schloss for only two months and is doing a great job!  After breakfast I took a walk around the grounds for a bit.


On a warmer day, we could be eating out breakfast out here


Nice spread


Great art on the wall

The Flag of Austria three times over


The Schloss Monchstein in all its glory

I looks more impressive from the end of the drive


Shut the front gate!


Still blooming even with the lows in the 40's


Are those sweat stains under the arms?
