Gosh, I'm so envious of you(just kidding), this year I also went to Austria and clearly in this area, but unfortunately I didn't know we had to book our ticket in advance.
Do you realize in the morning I arrived at that parking lot from where those red buses left for Eagles Nest, I also paid for the parking lot, I think 8 euros, and when I got to the ticket office there were no more tickets for that day, but we promised that we would arrive again via Austria and we will definitely go up to the Eagles Nest.
That's too bad that it didn't work out for you. Hopefully it will next time. You're lucky to be able to go a second time. What did you do that day instead?
Yes I hope next time I don't miss it, I reconfigured the route immediately after I saw there were no more seats and visited the Mirabell Gardens.
Nice. Glad you were able to salvage the day. That's great!
We were lucky we had a backup plan or the day was lost.
