Asparagus Chocolate, Ketchup Chocolate and Sushi!

After our long day of tours, Hannah and I decided to stay close to the hotel rather than attend The Sound of Music marionette show. We would have like to attend, but all we wanted to do was eat something and go to bed. Our hotel was in old town Salzburg, so all we had to do was exit our hotel and we were in the shopping district near Mozart’s birthplace. Hannah had spotted some small dolls for one euro each and she wanted to make a purchase. Unfortunately, just about everything shuts down by 6 p.m. and the doll store was closed. We did manage to find a chocolate store that was open and made an adventurous purchase—asparagus chocolate and ketchup chocolate bars. No samples available (why would they when they know you’ll make a purchase just to try). Lowell was back in the hotel room and we were excited to bring them back for him to sample. Since we wanted to give Lowell some time to work, Hannah and I went to find a place to eat. When we spotted the Japanese restaurant, sushi sounded really good. It was a very limited selection, but we were able to purchase some of our favorites—California roll, maguro and cucumber roll. Ninja in Cedar City spoils us with their choice of rolls, and our California favorite, Taiko in Irvine, spoils us with great sushi for a great price. But, how many people can say they had sushi in Old town Salzburg?
