We wanted to make the most of the rail pass, but also did not have enough time to go to the east coast.We also had another day trip planned for Niagara Falls which we ultimately needed to cancel due to schedule conflicts. So off to the capital!

So show me, I'll show you

I used to not understand the hype of concerts; I listened to a variety of music, but there were few artists that I enjoyed the entire discography of, and without that factor, I was hesitant to consider myself a fan.

From Glendalough to Killarney
Day 23
We packed up our things and left Dublin to embark on a fast-paced tour of Ireland. We went down many narrow roads that winded along the country while driving on the other side of the road... It was quite an adventure.


Our first stop was Glendalough.

Dublin, doubly
Day 21 & 22
We left our hotel in the morning and headed to Schiphol for the last time. After a brunch at Leon, we lined up early for security due to overcrowding the previous week. Despite the long lines, they had only three lines open, and said it was very fast wait times compared to average. Uh, Schiphol... This was my first time boarding here despite arriving here three times in the past three weeks.

Ein Tag in München
Day 20
We had about half a day to spend in the capital of Bavaria; we arrived at lunchtime and had a flight that evening back to Amsterdam.
We stepped out of the station and immediately saw a huge protest making its way through the streets, with multiple police officers accompanying it. After the protesters passed by, we trailed behind them to find a place for lunch.

The Salt Fortress
Day 19
After hopping on the train towards the other side of Austria, we found ourselves in Salzburg, which literally translates to the title above.
We hopped into a grocery store at the station, and I stocked up on snacks. It was here that I found my favourite Haribo of all time, the Dinos! I sadly have yet to locate it elsewhere.
Not pictured is our visits to the birthplace and house of Mozart - both locations prohibited photography.

The Village of Hallstatt
Day 18
We left our apartment in the morning to make our way to the train station. A train and ferry ride later, we found ourselves awestruck by the beauty of Hallstatt.

Coffee in Vienna
Day 16 & 17
Vienna! We dropped off our things at the apartment and headed out for the evening.


It was already quite late, so we paid a visit to the Schloss Belvedere before having dinner nearby.

Temiskaming Shores
The day after I got off the plane, we headed up to Temiskaming Shores. A city of less than 10k people, it is probably one of the smallest places we had visited for a trip that was not related to camping, skiing, or where outdoor activity was the main reason for visiting.
