24 Hours in Salzburg, Austria with American Parents | Austria's Steepest Cog Railway + Ferry in Alps
Vložit
- čas přidán 7. 09. 2024
- AMERICAN PARENTS ARE IN EUROPE!! After picking them up at the Nuremberg Airport, we headed down from Germany to Austria. We stayed the night in Salzburg and woke up early to experience Austria's STEEPEST COG RAILWAY. The Schafbergbahn has been running from St. Wolfgang since 1893. The train takes 35 minutes to cover a total distance of 5.85 kilometers, rising 1190 vertical meters. We had a memorable experience, but were a bit bummed the clouds covered our view of the Austrian Alps at the top.
After tasting some strong cheese and getting some pea soup, we made our way down to take the ferry from St. Wolfgang to St. Gilgen. The lake was some of the clearest we've seen and Willa had a blast cuddling up with her grandma and papa. :) We ended our time in in Austria exploring Salzburg Aldstadt (the old town center).

Never seen such proud grandparents as to Cute Little Poffertje'! This makes me sooooo happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Little Willa is always so cute and to see her enjoying time with her grandparents so much ... she is just adorable.
If I want to see bad weather, rain and green nature, all I have to do is tune into your channel, while we are sweating in drought and permanent sun in West Germany for months now 😅
Haha this made me laugh out loud!! we have been feeling that way at home in Germany too so the cool weather was a nice break 😂
Your parents gave the jetlag no chance. Good job!
So cute to see happy Willa with her happy grandparents !
Willa should start going to a Kinderchor :) she would love it
7:03 - I hear Hungarian, my native language. :) I'm not surprised; Austria is a popular destination for us also (to be a tourist or to live there too). The woman is saying: "Itt van előttünk a boci." (Here's a /small/ cow in front of us.)
I can empathize with the homesickness. I love Germany and Munich so much but I often just miss being home.
It can be hard for sure! Where is home for you? 💛 Sending hugs!
@@OurStorytoTell Wisconsin and we have our retirement home there which I also miss.
Willa and her grandparents is absolutely the most beautiful interaction! I love your videography ❤️. Your adventures are so wonderful and when your parents come it makes it even more special. Thanks for taking the channel along.
A warm welcome to Tanner's parents in Europe. So nice that Willa has some time to spent with them. You really do a lot of traveling and I understand that you are homesick. No matter how
mind opening and awesome it is to see other countries and experience other cultures you always will miss family and friends. You are probably overwhelmed and somewhat also exhausted of all your adventures and impressions. Take care and enjoy the time with your parents. Love your video as always.
Thanks for such a supportive comment! You assume so well! It can be tiring to travel so frequently, but we also thrive on it! So it’s finding that balance. 💛
Nice to see that part's of your family are coming now to visit you. I'm glad you can explore all of new things together.
The cow's welcomed you to Austria and your family to Europe.
And who could not love trains, they're so cool. I totally understand Willa 😊👏👏👍
For food and beverages, Austria is definitely one of the best countries in Europe with quality and variety.
Being homesick is something pretty normal, i guess almost everyone has that feeling from to time when living abroad.
We were up on Schafberg this summer, and had the less than brilliant idea to walk on foot down from the top to the middle station. My legs and feet and many parts of my body hurt for a whole week after, because we had to hurry to catch the train down which we had booked. Next time no walking !
Hahah oh we can imagine! Such a steep hike!
Great to see Willa being so close and comfortable with Tanner's parents. She is such a happy and smart little girl. They always say how beautiful the country of Austria is, but enjoyed seeing the beauty of Salzburg. The railway and Ferry ride looked very picturesque as well. Good to see that the fog doesn't stop you from enjoying your time together. It was interesting to see the statue of George Washington in the door entrance.
Es ist so schön mitanzusehehen wie gut sich Willa mit Opa und Oma versteht..!
Awww Willa so sweet with her attention to tanners parents ❤️. Thats a shame they got delayed. But it chaos in Amsterdam schiphol at the moment .
The views with the drone were absolutely breathtaking omg 😱 thank you so much for taking us a long
Look forward to your Trip to Belguim. ,hearing Tanners dad thoughts 😜 how much it changed or not 🤷♀️ you never know .
Have a Fantastic trip 🥰🥰
Always love your comments! 💗 Thanks so much! We posted the video about it today so hopefully you enjoy it!
The interaction between Willa and her grandparents is awesome. She really seems to grasp the concept of time very good, so she decides to focus as much attention as she can towards them, because they are only with you for a limited amount of time, until they have to travel back. I realize this because my nephew does not have a real concept of time yet, when I showed him pictures of me when I was his age, he kept asking where he was, and why he was not in the pictures.
What a lovely video! Salzburg and the Salzkammergut are so beautiful, I've always loved it. There's so much to explore. And so great to see that Willa had such a wonderful time with her grandparents!❤
This lake was made famous by the movie "Im weißen Rößl am Wolfgangsee" in 1960. The inn still exists today as a romantic hotel.
Thought exactly the same 😉
Aww, it's always nice to see family! We feel the same. We've been in Canada for a while and are definitely missing family in Australia but we love Canada so much! We hope you enjoy every moment with them!
Welcome to Tanner's parents. Nice to see you interacting with Willa; she is such an incredibly sweet girl. Who wouldn't be charmed by her?
Have the best time here. Hopefully the whole trip here won't be fraught with similar delays such as in Amsterdam.
Salzkammergut is really a beautiful area to spend some time. Been there a few times also. Great video and nice editing. 👍
Too bad you only could visit Salzburg for a short time. Next time you are in Salzburg I recommend going to the castle Hohenwerfen. It is stunning and the bird of prey show is fantastic. I also love the huge ice cave at the Eisriesrnwelt and the salt mines, which are so much fun (they have mine trains and slides) and are interesting (historically) at the same time. I also love castle Hellbrunn with their trick fountains. It’s so much fun when people get tricked and get soaking wet 😄
I go to Salzburg and all of these sights every couple of years with my pupils and it’s my most favourite school excursion because it’s so much fun.
The beauty of Salzburg and Austria is breathtaking.
Truly!!
11:39 Plitsch-platsch! 😁
Love the airport song! ;)
Same!!
Another lovely video. You really capture your real feelings and take us along with you, so much so I felt quite emotional when Tanner's parents arrived at the airport. Its lovely Willa felt so comfortable with her grandparents, as they live so far from you at the moment those memories they will take back from time with you all will mean even more 💚
Aww it means a lot reading your comment 💛 Thanks for your kind words and support. Being back with family has meant so much!
Did you notice, that even McDonalds and other chains have to meet the conservation requirements in the alleys of Salzburg and therefor have beautiful iron signs?
Netflix just announced a new program about Elizabeth the Empress of Austria and Queen of Hungary. She was born into the Wittelsbach royal family of Bavaria. The Wittelsbach line is so fascinating…definitely could go down a rabbit hole reading about all the fascinating characters with King Ludwig II being the most interesting of course.
interesting! Thanks for sharing! We definitely know the name King Ludwig from Neuschweinstein!
First of all, Wellcome to Tanners parents to Germany, to Europe. Have a nice and peasant time over here and enjoy being guided by a longtime travellers couple with their everybodies darling, your grandchild Willa. Enjoy your time even she need a rest from tome to time taking a nap(that always look so cute). Did you see her face lighten up when she realized taken a choo-choo train soon. Amazing showing her joy to do it soon. Risa, I fully understand to become homesick from time to time and once time will come you need to go back but I also know, after a while your body will shaken and force you to explore to discover others and looking for new challenges all of what our life can offer. Dont worry about. Take your time to be a coachpotatoe and also enjoy new discoveries. Even it will be a tough timr for Tanner taking the gang around, I am sure he also enjoy it very much.
loved the song you put in at the fairy ride. and overall the music was really nice in this video. also I always love seeing you explore things with your parents. hope they liked it despite the cloudy weather. ♥
I hope you got the chance to taste some original „Salzburger Nockerln“. It‘s a famous and imho very delicious sweet dish that you should give a try if you didn’t already.
1st! :)
Great video as always!
Wish you a lot of fun! =)
"We can´t see the lakes" -> you would´ve seen 5 lakes - at least!
Whith such nice and caring (Grand-)parents there cannot be bad weather!
The changing cloud stituations on mountain tops got something magical...
Beeing afraid of heights, I throw myself to the ground if they get blown away too sudden (but i like that little kick)
Where you late for the traintickets because you put the drone on top of the train first? (
Awesome to see what foreigners enjoy in my hometown :)
Great vids, I've always loved visiting Salzburg.
Who does the editing for your vlogs.Awards worthy Editing skills. Amazing. Keep it up guys 😘
We do so thank you this means A LOT! It takes quite some time 😊
@@OurStorytoTell Seriously Editing of a video is what makes anyone hook into watching any CZcams video. I just discovered your channel 2 days back. And I am binge watching all of your videos now 😃
Dear Friends First welcome Oma and opa to Europe
Wowww is great one sooooo nice
The singing voice of your videos sounds often so familiar. Does Tanner also sing? Sorry, if I have said something stupid. Great to see you guys, having a great time in Europe. Take care and enjoy!
Tanner should’ve hiked up to the Schafsberg 😉we did that hike it 2 years ago and the last 100 altimeter was a huge pain!!! Down we took the Schafsbergbahn 👍🏻
So nice to hear you’re coming to Belgium - looking forward to the next video, hope my fellow Belgians made a good impression. 😄
Oh they did!! We are excited for you to watch the videos too! We posted one today and there will be two more coming out!
@@OurStorytoTell Already enjoyed the Brussels one - and I must admit I’ve never actually seen that flower carpet myself, but it looked gorgeous! Looking forward to your Bruges adventures, and if you’re looking for suggestions for perhaps another Belgium trip in the future: both Ghent and Antwerp are beautiful historical cities with impressive architecture and delicious foods to try out. 😇
My guess is that having spent time with Rise’s parents, Willa is far more prepared to trust and enjoy your parents from the beginning!
We think so too!
Clouds? Rain clouds? Haven't seen those for 2 months. And green grass? Here everything is brown and dried away. What year is this? Are you sure this is a '22 video? ;)
Haha yes positive 😂😂 It has been a dry summer where we live in Germany too!
Nice you guys enjoyed my home area - the salzkammergut. And i see you were able to enjoy our beautiful weather ^^ If you are still around or you plan to come back, hit me up for some ideas and hidden gems ;)
I’ve been up Schafberg 3 weeks ago. The weather was better, but not totally clear either.
is that silent hill
Why are you always in Austria when the weather is bad 😭
I know!! 😭 Gosh just our luck!!
Just wondering: has Tanner's dad lived in Mons, Chievres, or Brussels?
Brussels for some time, but not the other places. He also lived in Kortrijk and Ghent. 😊
@@OurStorytoTell Thanks for letting me know.
Maybe some different music:)
👍👍👍
This webcam shows the panorama at the Schafberg: schafberg.panomax.com/
Especially sunrises and sunsets are worth seeing.
Oh my goodness 😍😍 Thanks for sharing!
Can't wait for next video ❤️
Watching this together with my wife and we both love your channel !!! We're fellow travelers and we make our own content, but always happy to learn something new ☺️
