Went to the Salt Mine outside of Salzburg yesterday. A one time thing to go to, but quite fun. The slides were fun and there was even a boat ride in the salt caverns. Funny that there was an escalator back up down there. They also pass out white uniforms for us so our clothes don’t get dirty; reminds me of the outfits for the TV room in Willy Wonka. The mine itself causes me to recall the one the Delorean was stored in as well as causing me to think that Indy and Short Round would come flying past. The video was slightly odd as we learned about the kind who held the rights to the salt mines that are actually under Germany (we crossed the border 2x underground). The video ended by telling us about the 15 kids that the archbishop (or king) fathered. A lot of fun though.
Pre-story about the journey to the mines: On the train ride there we got off 4 stops too early and had to walk to Hallein for at least a mile and a half (felt like it). Bit annoying but luckily they held the tour for us (the next one would’ve made us late for the bus ride back).
