"How do you solve a problem like Maria?"

We made it home yesterday and are so glad to be back! We had a fabulous time in Germany and Austria, but there's just something about sleeping in your own bed after 2 weeks away. I have so many pictures to share too! I hope you don't get sick of them. We saw some of the most breathtaking scenery while we were there. God's creation never ceases to amaze me! Well, enough blabbing. Here's pictures taken while we were in Austria of places from the Sound of Music. And yes, we did watch the movie while there. I love it

One of the fountains (we were driving while I took this):


The front of their house. We would have to walk far to get a better shot, but this is the front wall that's in the movie when she's going to meet the family for the first time.


The back of the house. It's so beautiful too! Also, this is the lake where they fell into it while greeting their "new mom to be".


The church where they got married. Her in real life Abby wouldn't let them film inside so they used this one.


Inside the church. I got to walk down the aisle.


More pictures to come soon!

Ummm....I hate you. Especially if you tell me that you went to the mountain top where they filmed "Doe A Deer." I will just hate you forever and ever.

Did you do the Sound of Music tour? We went to all those same places when were were there. We have video of my BIL dancing on the mountain top singing "The hills are alive..." Your Neuschwanstein picture is amazing...blow that up to poster size and sell that!! :)

Sooo cool! I would love to see all that in person one day! We had some friends who lived in Vienna for 5 years and just moved back to the states. Should have visited while they were there! Anyway, looks like an awesome trip!
