Hallstatt and Gmunden

---

This day we took a bus to Hallstatt and Gmunden which are about an hour and a half away from Linz, pretty close to Salzburg. But the weather was amazing and we got some really good pictures and looked around. Hallstatt is a big vacation spot because it's right on the lake and so pretty but you can't tell that's it's touristy at all. They said you can't buy a house there even if you wanted to pay an arm and a leg just because everyone likes to keep their house in the family because it's such a popular spot. Then we went to this other town called Gmunden on our way back where there was another lake and they gave us a couple hours to explore and we found these boats that you can rent. So we rented one and Mike the canadian drove ours and did a horrible job. He hit the dock when we took the boat back. But no damage so it's all good. It was a lot of fun besides the fact that when i sat down to take a picture with kevin in front of the lake i sat in goose poop. hahaha. oh well.

look at how the you can actually see the rocks through the water...every lake and river is like that here, it's so crazy that it's that clear
