Day 16 (17th July): Amsterdam/New York
Today we flew back. We had a 9:10am flight from Amsterdam, which meant we had to get to the airport by 6:10am, which means we had to leave the ship by 5:45am, which meant we had to get our luggag...
Day 15 (16th July): Kinderdijk
We had a short stop at Kinderdijk today. Docked at 1 and left at 5, with a 2 hour tour of a windmill museum. Most of the day though, we prepared for disembarkation tomorrow. A lot of people exc...
Day 14 (15th July): Colonge
This is the second-to-last port we will tour, as well as the last German city. Colonge is big, but the part worth seeing is all within walking distance - centered around the huge cathedral. There...
Day 13 (14th July): Koblenz
We had a rich day today. We finished cruising on the Main last night, and started the day on the Rhine. I stayed up late-ish to watch the World Cup finals, so was a bit groggy, but luckily we are...
Day 12 (13th July): Wurtheim
We spent the morning in Wurtheim today, finally leaving Bavaria. The day was dreary though, and it rained all morning, so we didn't do much. Also, since it was Sunday, most stores were not open, ...
Day 11 (12th July) Wurzburg
We got to spend a day at Wurzburg. It was a Saturday so the main market place was very busy. It was set up like a flea market but there were peope selling all kinds of stuff, from pots and pans t...
Day 10 (11th July): Bamburg
Today we had a half-day in Bamburg, and spent the afternoon and evening sailing out of the Main-Danube canal into the Main river. Sailing is kind of an over statement, because for the most part I...
Day 9 (10th July) Nuremburg
Today we spent in Nuremberg. Last night after Regensburg we left the Danube and went into the Main-Danube canal. La Professeure was very interested in knowing when we exactly start our stretch in...
Day 8 (9th July): Regensburg
We spent today at Regensburg. It is a bigger town, but the 'cool' part - the old town - is still in walkable distance from the dock, so that was the part we spent our time. However, this was a da...
Day 7 (8th July) Passau
Passau is another one of the smaller towns we dock at. We only spent half a day there and that was enough time to see what was worth seeing. Before that, last night we passed by Linz, and I wan...
Day 6 (7th July): Melk
Today is much more laid-back compared to previous days, when we spent the day in a big city. Come to think of it, they were all capitals - Amsterdam, Budapest, Bratislava, Vienna. This time our ...
Day 5 (July 6th): Vienna
I knew that the one day our cruise line gives us in Vienna isn't going to be enough, but after seeing around for a day, I think it'll take several days to do all the things I would want to do her...
Day 4 Jul 5th (Bratislava)
It was a (relatively) easy day, since Bratislava isn't that big and have that much to see. We woke up at 9, and had a leisurely breakfast, and hung out to wait till the boat gets into Slovakia....
Day 3 July 4th (Budapest)
It's the third day of our honeymoon and the ship has just started moving. The ship is small compared to other river cruising ships. It holds only 150 guests and is relatively old, I think it en...
Day 2 (3rd July) : Amsterdam/Budapest
I napped a little bit in the middle of the Atlantic ocean. When I woke up from my nap, it was day time already and the stewardess were offering the breakfast package to everybody. An hour later w...
Day 1: Wed 2nd July (New York)
It was always going to be a lazy day. I made the mistake of trying to work half the day. There was a little bit of work to wrap up before I can give it to the new guy, though he is taking a week ...
