Wonder and amazement in Antwerp’s Central Station June 15, 2009

My first experience overseas was when I studied in Salzburg, Austria back in 1989. Salzburg is of course where they filmed huge portions of the Sound of Music, so it – and the movie – has always had a special place in my heart. Train stations are the same no matter where you are, so I can only imagine the bewilderment these people experienced. This is just a really cool video. Not necessarily TGIF worthy, but consider it a little bonus to brighten your week. And think about how you might react if this had happened where you were. It is a promotion stunt in the Central Station of Antwerp for a Belgian television program, where they are looking for someone to play the leading role in the musical of “The Sound of Music”. Apparently they only had two rehearsals. Quite impressive…

It always amazes me how popular “The Sound of Music” is in the rest of the world as basically noone here in Austria knows it. 🙂 Cool video!
