Euro Trip - Part 1 Salzburg

Well I reached Salzburg in the afternoon 2:30 and it was raining all the way and the weather was awesome, well to me..mind it European people don't like rain they like sunshine. On the way to Salzburg in the train as my mind goes crazy on long trips, I spent my journey listening to my i-pod and reading NEXT:).
On my arrival I did what I do on my first arrival at any place, went to the inquiry counter and asked for map. I sat out in the open roads holding a map rather than umbrella, strange but all that was happening was more than strange. Luckily I was wearing my jacket because it was cold out there believe me, much more for me a person from the deserts to a land where green is everywhere and by everywhere I mean 'everywhere'.
As my intuition proved to be correct this time also I reached out to the river in no time and it was beautiful. Every city has one river and every place for the visitors is located nearby it. Salzburg is all about Mozartium, I first saw the national museum and in front of that was a school for mozartium. I wish I were there for a longer time so that I could also try to understand Mozartium. Well then it was my turn to watch a palace, which was having in my mind a image that it is meant for princesses and price charming..and I was correct palaces are awesome and 'Palace of Mirabell' proved to stand to its popularity and its beauty lies in its environment location and the way it has been designed. Reading my explanation, go check out the palace and one will not regret spending ur money.
I appreciated the beauty of the palace and then at around 6:50 p.m. I started for the railway station called as Hauptnhof in German.
I then witnessed the most sweetest goodbye ever in my life..a gal came to see off his bf with all the love and tender..a moment of despair, a moment to remember, a moment to regret, a moment to express your love..happiness and realization of the importance of each other...well I talked to the guy afterward and heard an amazing love story, which I love the most to hear.
I reached Graz at night and was very tired...so just had a good night sleep as I had to get back to my dept. to work whole day.
