My friend Luiz from Brazil does the Today's Flowers Meme, check it out. Come and join with your flower photos. Sunday at 2 GMT is the post time.
Here are some more flowers I saw on my Europe trip. We were gathering to tour Mirabell Palace Garden in Salzburg, Austria. This little flowering tree begged for a photo. The wife and our new friends Mary and Dave are just behind the tree. The palace is right behind.
The hanging blooms were just beautiful on the tree.
This is the garden where part of "The Sound of Music" was filmed.
The gardens were not in full bloom but you can see some of the beauty to come.
I couldn't get Mrs. Fishing Guy to twirl but she did pose at the fountain where the childrens and Jule Andrews danced.
Visit a lot of neat sites to see above.





That's a very beautiful flowering tree. Perhaps you needed to sing in order to get Mrs. Fishing Guy to twirl around the fountain.
ReplyDeletelovely bloom!
ReplyDeleteThe blooms on that tree are gorgeous! I'm reliving my visits to Europe vicariously through you. I lived in Germany in the mid- to late-70s (I was in the Army) and returned as a tourist in 1982 and 1984. I have visited both of the cities, Venice and Salzburg, that you have blogged about so far. I would love to return to Europe one day!
ReplyDeleteBy the way I noticed, too, that my photograph did not display for a moment. I suspect Flickr was experiencing a hiccup.
Beautiful pictures.I love those trumpet shaped blossoms.Have a lovely day.It is great to see this lovely picture of your wife.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,Ruth
What a gorgeous trip, Austria is a gorgeous country. Loved the tree blossoms and nice photo of the Mrs Fishing Guy.
ReplyDeleteLovely flower tree. Have a good week. Nancy
ReplyDeleteGorgeous flowering tree!
ReplyDeleteOutstanding photos, and I enjoyed seeing Mrs. FG. Looking forward to catching up on all your other European Vacation pics. Thanks for stopping by and letting me know about Linda's first entry. Fortunately I had already visited but always appreciate a head's up just in case.
ReplyDeleteWhat is this stunning pink tree I wonder.. Love your header begging all fishing guys sandy
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers!
ReplyDeleteI think Mrs. FG is a very good sport! The blossoms on the tree are awesome! I wonder what they are!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun, to be at that fountain. I love torturing myself and family with the Sound of Music at least a couple of times a year! But that pink tree! Did it have a fragrance? It looks like perfume heaven!
ReplyDeleteThese flowering trees are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteWhy didn't you twirl by the fountain and let Mrs. Fishing Guy take the pic?
The shot of the blooms hanging is beautiful! Wow, so nice to be in a place where one of my all time favorite movie was filmed!
ReplyDeleteIt is a beautiful place!
The blooms on that tree look like little bells!
ReplyDeleteIts a very soft pretty colour of pink too.
Very beautiful.
ReplyDeletebeautiful flowering..iam waiting for it..and the Mr. Fishing Guy is a very beautiful lady.

Fishing guy I thoroughly enjoyed browsing through your Europeon vacation photos here and in previous posts! Ah yes the memories I have of Venicia! Those sunsets stay gorgeous and just the way I remember them! Hey nice to put a face to your name!
ReplyDeleteThe new header image is a true "fishing guy's image"
Beautiful blossoms hanging off that tree. I believe I recognize your name as a follower of my sister's site "upnorthwithmel"?! am I right?
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful place! I was in Salzburg so many years ago, in the summer. These trees are so pretty...lovely little flowers. And, how fun it is to see where movies were filmed. I also saw this fountain...way back then!
ReplyDeleteThe pink blooms on the tree are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteIt is nice to see this lovely photo of your wife.
Nice to see mrs Tom, great shots.
ReplyDeletePretty flowers-pretty Mrs. Fishing Guy too : )
ReplyDeleteGreat post of the flowers, Tom.... I think that the two of you needed to burst out in song while you were at the fountains!!!!!! Love that movie!!!
ReplyDeleteBetsy
Gorgeous bloom. I haven't seen such kind of flower yet. Nice picture of Mrs Fishing Guy. Great shots as always, Tom. Have a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful trip. Beautiful shots.
ReplyDeleteLuiz Ramos
its me again ~I knew I saw your name somewhere, believe it or not the "dar" from "darsstuffings" is also my sister! and I'm not pulling your leg - lol
ReplyDeleteI think you captured Mrs. Fishing Guy in mid-twirl, since this is not a moving photo! Looking at the photo of the tree, I was expecting fruit flower shaped blossoms, not these tubes! Wonderful!!
ReplyDeleteI love that flowering tree...I don't remember ever seeing anything like it.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos. Yours is the second post I've seen today covering a trip to Salzburg and mentioning the Sound of Music.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great trip!
ReplyDeleteThey are stunning Tom. :)
ReplyDeleteMaybe if you danced with her she would have loved having her picture taken. :)
Wonderful shots! I would love to visit that spot someday. It appears you had a lovely trip.
ReplyDeletePretty little trumpet blooms.
ReplyDeleteThe third shot is beautiful Tom!
ReplyDeleteAs is the Mrs. :)
i believe that the most beautiful flower for you is the one in the last photo :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a beautiful tree. Beautiful flowers. Sound of Music is a favorite here. I can see that scene unfolding!
ReplyDeleteI love that pink tree! Beautiful flowers. Mrs. Fishing Guy looks pretty nice, too :-)
ReplyDeleteThose flowers are very pretty.
ReplyDeleteWonder what kind of tree that is?
She should have twirled! LOL
