2010/8/8 Austria Day 4 – Linz

While we were waiting for the bus, a 7-seater taxi appeared!  We decided to take taxi to Salzburg Haupbanhof to save time. 

At first we would like to go to Innsbruck, but the schedule of the train did not fit our time.  Therefore, we decided to visit Linz, which was the best city picked according to the departure and arrival time.

The weather was so fine.  The sky was so blue.

We took a tram to the Hauptplatz.

The Trinity Column monument honoured plague victims and thanked God for keeping the plague out of the main city of Linz.

We had tea in Linz.  We ordered yummy ice-cream.  Tin chose coffee.

We walked around the city. 

 

Ron spotted a police car.

Tin was very sensitive to toys.

Faye was fond of shopping all kinds of beautiful souvenir.

We waited for a tram to go back to the train station.

There was a dead bee on the tram floor.  Faye took my camera to take a photo of it.

Soon we were back to the train station.  I suddenly realized that Tyler’s backpack disappeared.  We thought immediately that it was left at the coffee shop.  Luckily, Tin was calm enough to retrieve his memory in his brain and then used his camera to verify.  He played the pictures one by one and found that the backpack was not with Tyler at the coffee shop.  It should be lost before we took tram to the Hauptplatz.  Finally, Big Sis and Tyler searched the train station and found it on a bench.  It was lying there for 2 hours!  We were so lucky!

We met a group of travelers from Hong Kong.  We chatted for a couple of minutes.  As no one entertained Ron and Trevor, they both fell asleep.

We had dinner again at Burger King that evening.

After the dinner, the sun was still shining brightly on Salzburg.  We loved sunny day, and ‘sunny night’.
