austrian countryside

time to move on over to austria from germany.  here's some more pics from the trip.


this is from a quant little town in the countryside.  kind of a neat setup.  good beer.


same phone, different photo.


this is a photo from the wall that surrounds the whole city.  this is on the inside of course.  there are sniper windows & clear views on the other side of 'em. 


this the first image of Jesus represented in chains.  this is a random church in the countryside that people from all over go to.  apparently miracles were granted from here


here's is one of ludwig's castles.  one of them, which i don't think i'll show, is the inspiration for disney's.


this is the disney inspiration castle.  ludwig died once the exterior and 1/3 of the inside ws complete.  within a few weeks, the government opened it up to the public for viewing...and making money.


this is outside of an abbey that was built to emulate versailles in france.  ain't no topping that one.


this is a huge staircase in the abbey...actually it's not that big; however, they put a mirror at the bottom so it looks huge.  


there is a church inside the abbey, and there is a skeleton of a saint in a sarcophagus.  real saint, real creepy


this is from inside the church with the dead saints.


dude.  lebowski


teehee teehee...he said kock.


this is from some church in vienna.


here's the massive organ in the church in vienna

oops wait...this is the one modeled after versailles in france.


here's the view from the opposite direction.
