Eastern
Europe with Danube/Rhine Cruise
Fri 19 Rüdesheim & Rhine Gorge,
Friday, June 19 RHINE GORGE, RÜDESHEIM This morning, the ship will dock in Rüdesheim, where you can take the Winzerexpress mini-train to Siegfried’s Mechanical Musical Instrument Museum. The first of its kind in Germany, Siegfried's Mechanical Musical Instrument Museum is an eccentric and unique museum showcasing one of the largest collections of automated musical instruments in the world. Later, have your camera handy to capture some of the best scenery you’ll encounter as you cruise through the Rhine Gorge this morning. Known as the most beautiful stretch of this enchanting river, witness crumbling ruins that cling to rocky cliffs and rolling hillsides marked with perfectly planted vineyards. Temps 38 deg C. Just too hot, even for most Ausies. Still coughing. The coffee is crap. Tea, below expectations despite a big variety on offer. The hot chocolate is satisfying but is too sweet.. Top deck open now for the last couple of days. (Life is good above ground)
