On Sunday I went
to Salzburg, Austria and found out that the city is more than fine music and
the Sound of Music movie.
I had heard about
a tradition involving locks. I looked for them and and found them on a Salzburg
bridge. In social studies, we learned about this bridge but I found an
additional bridge with locks in Munich. During WWII people from Salzburg were
known for attaching locks to bridges, often with their lovers names and their
names on them. They would next throw the keys in the river so the locks
wouldn’t ever come off. This tradition still goes on today; I found that out
when I saw a lock with 2012 on it.


Hey Emory, sounds like you are having a great trip. So glad you got to go. See you soon. Mrs. Horne
ReplyDeleteEmory,
ReplyDeleteThat is the coolest bridge. I had never heard that story before. Hope you are having a great time. We are having field day today, but it is a little wet because it has been raining here for the past few days. See you soon.
