Today began like so many others in this past 10 days. Awake at 0700hrs down to meet Wayne for breakfast, because as you know Kerry is not what you would call an early bird. Breakfast, for me has been pretty standard every day. Toast, juice, coffee, fruit and usually something from the omelette station plus smoked salmon. There has not been a lot of variety but there is always enough to satisfy.
Today we did not dock until nearly 1300hrs in Regensberg. However by then we had had lunch and were ready to go. Today it was just all about walking with our guide around this small town. This town was founded in approx 200ad by the Romans who occupied it for several hundred years before moving on, leaving behind a well fortified city the ruins of which can still be seen to day. After our guided tour we went to an outdoor beer garden where we had apple strudel,beer for me,wine for Kerry and then helped each other back to the ship for dinner. After dinner we were entertained by a local trio of artists who mostly sang German opera songs but finished off with a medley from the sound of music. All in all another great day. Temperatures in the high 70's today with lots of humidity.
Local artwork depicting the fall of the Berlin wall
Bridge built in the 1200's spanning some 300 meters it may be the oldest bridge still functioning in germany
Gate way to the old bridge which separates the city in two.
And of course the beer gardens
Part of the entertainment on board. Two female singer/dancers and a piano player all classical music of course.
