Started with a visit to the Glockenmuseum. It's both a museum and still a founder making bells, mostly big ones. Very interesting, and they even explained about tuning them and had some you could whack to check out the sound.
I think we took a slight wrong turn and ended up with bruschetta for lunch, with a proprietor who decided to speak Italian to us. Not sure why.
Then back to Tirol, with a visit to the Hofkirche (all about Emperor Maximilian I) and the Tirolean folk culture museum. Traditional clothes, elaborate carvings on everything from tools to furniture, and more. Both the church and the museum were well worth a visit.
An hour rest in the Hofgarten, then off to a Tirolean dinner plus music and dance show. The show was for tourists, of course, but very well done and quite varied. A fun evening.
