What Happens On The Holiday?
Tuesday 13th September
Our outing today was to Salzburg; on arriving in Salzburg some of the VIP's shopped did some shopping at some of the stalls while others visited the cathedral. We were all given 10 Euros to buy lunch. Most of the group had lunch in a cafe in the square, outside but under umbrellas due to the rain. Once we were all fed and water Much shopping then ensued, present buying, CD buying, more ice creams, and all the while taking in Salzburg's' sights.
Wednesday 14th September
A lazy start to the day Ben and Bills mystery tour departs at 11am. All the group are in their white t-shirts as today will be our group photo. The bus stops a quick look round and there are some unusual looking cows in the field and a sign says something about wildlife. We are at Ferleiten Wildlife Park. We line up for our group photo, which Gordon asks a passing tourist to take.
The group then has the packed lunch, supplied by the hotel, sitting at the foot of a mountain waterfall. The weather is getting hotter and brighter and the alpine air is fresh. We pass some donkeys and large bison, there are deer sunning themselves, its feeding time and the stag come right down next to us, which is an amazing experience.
Refreshments were then sought at the cafe, some shopping done and it was back to the hotel, after a very enjoyable and relaxing afternoon in the wild. After dinner it's quiz night. Teams of two or three are made up of carer and VIP. Never has the group been so quiet and serious. An enjoyable end to an enjoyable day.
