We think that most RV parks are just parking lots. But I don't think people come to this RV park for the RV park. They come because it's convenient to see Salzburg, which is the same reason that we're here. It's a bonus that they nice amenities.Kevin Readhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05795747155781311686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-50737845646772249332021-10-09T14:56:17.590-04:002021-10-09T14:56:17.590-04:00That RV park might have the amenities, but it sure...That RV park might have the amenities, but it sure does lack for atmosphere!

A love lock is a padlock couples place on a bridge to commemorate their indestructible bond. And then they throw the kay in the river. Some locks have their initials on it.
