Postcard from Austria!

Today I got a beautiful panoramic postcard from Austria! The postcard shows multiple views of the city of Salzburg, where the popular composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was born. On the upper left part of the card, we see the actual birthplace of Mozart, which is now a museum. The building, located at No. 9 Getreidegasse, was where the Mozart family resided from 1747 to 1773. Mozart was the seventh child of Leopold Mozart, an accomplished musician. Numerous items are on exhibit, including some of Mozart's first instruments. The card was sent by my dad who visited Salzburg. Thanks Dad!
