 @wildcat fan   My church went to Austria & Switzerland. We did a "Sound of  Music tour ".

@wildcat fan   Everything wasn't in one place, but spread out. The gazebo was moved from where it was filmed and was in a lovely garden. I would love to have one like it but have too many trees.  The trees the children climbed leading to the house were elsewhere. 
  The church where Maria was married was in a town about 20 miles away. We went inside and they played the chimes. 
  Our whole bus was singing songs from the movie and annoying our escort who hated "Do, re me"! 

 


@1Snickers What an amazing experience you had!  That is really interesting about the locations of those scenes.  I would love to take a trip like that, especially with so many people who share the same interests.

[ Edited ]

I absolutely do not like this movie; my husband HATES this movie.  

 

For over 40 years, this is THE movie we love to use to annoy each other.  

 

I will see that it’s on, tell him to turn the channel real quick, and laugh like a hyena when he falls for it once again.   I also like to turn up the volume on my TV during the songs he despises most!   

 

The biggest joke of all is that my husband really thinks I like it, and am watching it, when I am just flipping back to give him loud auditory reminders!

Re: In The Sound of Music what's your favorite part or song?

There are so many good scenes and songs:  When -

 

The Captain & Maria are dancing the Landler. (insert umlaut)

 

The children and Maria sing, "My Favorite Things" and she gets the idea of sewing play clothes out of the drapery fabric.

 

The family and the crowd sing "Edelweiss" at the concert and the Nazis are squirming in their seats.

 

The nuns steal the car parts from the Nazis at the Abbey.

FUNNY!  My guide just had to tell us, the herd of US tourists, her most hated song was Edelweis.   She was a character, apparently she did not care for the movie.

 

I love Austria.  Out of this world.
