Driving from Munich to Salzburg

After spending a couple of nights in Munich, we made our way to Salzburg, Austria. I had visited this city as a college student. Ever since then, I've wanted to take Brian to show him this lovely city. He liked it so much that it is his current favorite European city. The opening photo is the view to the east on motorway A-8. 

Above - St. Marinus and Anian Catholic Church in Irschenberg, Germany - a good example of onion-domed churches found in southern Germany and Austria. Photos taken while driving by on the motorway.

Before exiting Germany, we stopped at a gas station to purchase a 'vignette' that allowed us to drive in Austria. A 10-day vignette cost €9.90 ($10.55) in 2023.

Beautiful scenery and weather during our August visit.

Below - the office of Camping Nord-Sam in Salzburg, where we stayed for 5 nights. A lovely place with all the amenities including fresh baked bread and croissants that can be ordered the day before. Yum!

After driving, a little relaxation for Brian as we settle in to our 'pitch' (campsite). Camping Nord-Sam is located in a residential area, so it was quiet and secure. It was our favorite camping park on this one-month campervan trip.
