Rhine Getaway River Cruise, Day 6: Kinderdijk, The Netherlands

Kinderdijk is a village community in the Alblasserwaard province. This corner of South Holland, part of the scenic Waal and Merwede regions, has long been shaped by Rhine Delta waters. Kinderdijk is most known for its 19 remarkably preserved 18th-century windmills.

The charming hamlet is located amid low-lying polders, tracts of land reclaimed from the sea by the power of the windmills and enclosed by embankments, or d**es.

This legendary place calls to mind the 1865 novel Hans Brinker, in which a heroic boy plugs his finger into a ruptured d**e.

Rhine Getaway River Cruise, Day 5: Cologne, Germany

Cologne reveals its Roman heritage in its city layout and the ancient ruins that lie scattered through the town. Cologne’s modern plazas and Hohe Strasse host welcoming shops, enticing restaurants and cologne boutiques. Of note is the city’s 14th-century cathedral, a stunning example of Gothic artistry and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Allied forces bombed 90 percent of Cologne during WWII so the juxtaposition of old and new is significant.

Kölsch beer for the win!

Rhine River Cruise, Day 4: Koblenz, Germany

Docked in beautiful Koblenz. Took the Koblenz cable car (Seilbahn Koblenz), an aerial lift that was opened in 2010 in Koblenz for the Bundesgartenschau (a biennial exhibition) the following year.

It connects the banks of the river Rhine and the hill plateau next to Ehrenbreitstein Fortress.

Afterwards sat at a café for a glass of wine and to enjoy the weather, followed by a leisurely stroll through the city before returning to the ship for dinner.
