This past week we have been thoroughly immersed in the spring rain culture of the province of Salzburg, Austria: Salzburg Schnürlregen. Salzburg Schnürlregen, otherwise translated in English to mean: Salzburg String Rain.
We arrived last Monday to our new host's farm north of Salzburg city on a beautiful sunny and warm afternoon. By 5pm...it started to rain. It has not stopped raining, except for yesterday, since we arrived!
The entire week past, the sky has been filled with dark, gray rain clouds and the air a constant mist or light showering of water from above. The German mountains, which should be visible from our current location, can barely be made out through the thick haze that covers the land.
Soon we hope to see the German mountains across the valley! Until then we will settle for the fog and mist!
