Last stop Budapest; actually two cities, Buda and Pest. The architecture is stunning! Mary and I went with the active tour and hiked up the hill into Buda to see the Castle district. They are continuing to rebuild the buildings to the original style since almost everything was destroyed during WW2. On our second day here we took a Tuk Tuk tour and saw even more sights. We finished our trip with an amazing (though long) dinner at the famous Gundel restaurant where we were serenaded all evening long. We've had an amazing time on the AmaMagna with AmaWaterways! We're putting plans together for another river cruise on the Magdalena River in Columbia. If you'd like to join us, let me know.

I hiked up to the castle in Bratislava in Slovakia. So much of their historical architecture was torn down during the communist regime but we saw a couple of the old buildings and churches that are still standing. It was fascinating to hear about the Iron Curtain, that was just on the other side of the Danube River, keeping the people prisoners in their own city. Their freedom came in 1989! That wasn't that long ago! They are still rebuilding and trying to honor what they lost.

We spent the day in Vienna. In the morning we walked around the city and saw St Michaels church and had coffee at Demel, a popular Viennese Cafe. We took it easy, knitting on the boat for the afternoon. In the evening, we went to a performance of Mozart and Strauss which included Opera singers and Ballet dancers. It was beautiful!

It looks like not all my pictures from Melk, Durstein and Spitz uploaded. Here are those pictures.

Today we went to Melk, Durnstein and Spitz. We started with a tour of the Melk Abby, it was beautiful, pictures weren't allowed inside, so you'll have to take my word for it. Then we traveled down the Danube catching glimpses of castles along the way, we docked in Spitz and went to Durnstein for a city tour and saw another Abby. We went back to Spitz for wine tasting and entertainment, which was fabulous! Back onboard for a special valentines dinner, which I forgot to take pictures of. Such a full day! Happy Valentines everyone!

We spent the day visiting Salzburg, the birthplace of Mozart and where the Sound of Music took place. I'm embarrassed to admit I didn't know it was based on a true story. We saw the real convent where Maria lived before going to work for the Von Traps and a few of the filming locations. We also went up to the fortress and saw the beautiful view of the whole city. After Salzburg, we met the boat in Grein. After dinner we went on a tour of the Grein Castle, owned by a descendent of Queen Victoria. Seeing all the original artwork of the royal family was just amazing! And they had a minstrel perform for us in the great hall. He made all his instruments using methods appropriate for the time period he designed them from. Such a wonderful experience!

Started the day in Vilshofen with a hike to the Monastery, followed by lunch where the staff made us laugh and we were surprised with a special gift. We cruised to Passau and saw St Stephen's Cathedral, it made me teary remembering my father in law, who we lost last month and who I would always send pictures of the Cathedrals I visit. I cheered myself up with local donuts (which he would have also loved). We got back on the boat and had a special Chef's Dinner and finished the evening watching the Sound of Music, as we're going to Salzburg tomorrow! What a wonderful day! And I miss you, Marvin Clark.

We left Munich and had a somber stop at DaChau Concentration Camp Memorial on our way to the AmaMagna in Vilshofen. It was good to remember the people that suffered, died, and recommit to NEVER AGAIN let that happen. The rest of the day was more carefree, as we celebrated a late Octoberfest with local musicians and dancers. The group is so happy with their cabins and the food on the AmaMagna.

Started the day with a traditional Bavarian breakfast, a very white sausage with sweet mustard, took the underground train, found a yarn store and drank from the fountains at the market. Such a fun day exploring Munich.

Group trip to Germany for a river cruise on the Danube River with AmaWaterways. We've arrived in Munich for 2 nights before the cruise begins. We're staying at the Hotel Augustin, super cute hotel in a quiet part of the city. This hotel is great for a group ok with sharing a room, we have a 3 bunk (6 beds) private room. Lots of great food nearby.
