Sound of Music Tour
Dear Rudy,
I just had to laugh after listening to the Sound of Music Tour
segment aired last Saturday. Fifteen years after taking this same
tour with my husband, he still teases me about it. (Of course I was
the one who insisted we join this bus ride in and around Salzburg).
I wouldn't exactly call the tour tasteless, just a little kitschy.
However, for those travelers spending just a day or two in this town,
it actually provided a pleasant overview of the area. Unfortunately,
the tour was marred by the loud, off-key singing of a group of
Australian girls who insisted on singing along with all the Sound of
Music tunes piped in overhead on the bus. Coincidentally, these same
girls seemed to mysteriously reappear on the rest of our travels
throughout Europe, including our ferry boat ride from Brindisi, Italy
to Greece.
