The days have become a bit of a blur, as happens on a fast moving trip like this. It has been more like a magical mystery cruise the last few days since we got unstuck. We are just about up to date with the original itinerary.
Early this morning we crossed the Continental Divide on a Canal connecting the Danube and Main river. At 7:30 this morning we reached the highest point on this journey and now start the descent to the Rhine River and Amsterdam. Previous to this we were sailing upstream in the Danube. After we get out of this 100 mile man-made canal, we will be sailing downstream to the North Sea, English Channel.
It was a long day today, Nuremberg and then to Bamburg before we caught up with the ship somewhere on the canal. Dinner was called 20 minutes after returning from a nine hour touring day.
Moe had a great day as well.
Our day in pictures, some without comment...
Crossing the Great Divide before breakfast. Not another person up there. All were attending their tummy's at the time.
Nuremberg, the castle. I believe I stayed in there in 1960, it is still a Youth Hostel.
This balcony was an expression of wealth in its day. I suppose there is evidence of that type of thing even to this day.
A Bavarian lunch. My gosh they eat a lot of food!
This photo was taken by a couple from Texas, Houston.
In Bamburg.
We bumped into Moe on a walking tour.
Overlooking the city of Nuremberg from the Castle area.
The British Army is coming to town!
Just interesting to see.
