London July 26th, 2025 It seems like we had just gone to bed, and then it was time to wake up and get ready for our taxi at 4:45. It was already feeling strange that we didn’t have any arrangements to meet up with our family for breakfast. They...
Budapest, Hungary July 25th, 2025 Kane had said that we should all be up bright and early not to miss the beauty of us sailing in to Budapest. We must have been in a hurry as we sped past an Amawaterways ship. At first it just looked like we...
Bratislava, Slovakia July 24th, 2025 We had stayed overnight in Vienna. The rest of the family had decided to spend another day sightseeing in Vienna, while Brian and I decided it was time to experience a new country, so off we went to...
Vienna, Austria July 23rd, 2025 Our first full day in Vienna. I must say, the weather didn’t look too great from our cabin when we went to breakfast. Our tour today was “Panoramic Vienna” a combination on sightseeing by coach and a walking tour....
Wachau Valley July 22nd, 2025 There was the great green Danube outside our window this morning. Yay! No other boat was alongside. That was probably because we were sailing down river for a scenic cruise through the Wachau Valley. We were due to...
Passau, Germany July 21st, 2025 When I looked out of our cabin this morning I thought I was looking at a mirror. I was looking straight at our cabin. All very weird. Then I remembered from our Rhine cruise that sometimes the boats have to tie up...
Regensburg July 20th, 2025 Well, the mattresses are not as wonderful as the Cunard ones, but after all of the walking yesterday I was exhausted and slept well anyway. Our tour today was Historic Regensburg and Jewish Heritage. The great thing...
Regensburg July 19th, 2025 After 2 wonderful days in London, we flew to Munich and took the train to Regensburg. I had been anxious about coping with all of our luggage on the train, but after a bit of confusion we were able to find the correct...
Southampton July 15th, 2025 When we got up this morning, we were clearly not in Southampton yet. During breakfast we continued to watch us slowly make our way up the Solent. It was pretty to watch, we have always slept through this part of a...
At Sea July 14th, 2025 As we were going to sleep last night, the ship started rolling. I wondered if they hadn’t deployed the stabilizers yet. It was certainly quite rocky in our stateroom. However, I was thrilled by the motion. It really is...
At Sea July 13th, 2025 There was no avoiding it. Laundry had to be done today. I gathered everything into our laundry bag and headed for the deck 8 launderette. Horrors – the only functional dryer was now missing, and the other, now with a sign...
At Sea July 12th, 2025 The first thing we had to do this morning is go to the Britannia Dining room with our passports so we could be seen by the UK immigration people. There was no queue and other than commenting that I travel a lot (I do need...
