Cruising on Home


We continued our cruise up the Rhine with stops to explore Cologne and another place before traveling along the ‘Romantic Rhine’: a section of the river that boasts numerous castles and picturesque villages. We parked the boat at Mannheim and took a bus trip to explore Heidelberg and the returned to complete the last leg of the cruise in Strasbourg.



We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived at our hotel in Strasbourg to find that we were booked for 2 nights not the one that we had expected. After frantically checking our that the dates lined up with our onward flights, we settled in for a lazy couple of days exploring what turned out to be a very charming old city.


                                                         

At present we are sitting Strasbourg Airport for our flights to Dublin. We will commence the return journey Sunday evening local time and will arrive back in Canberra on Tuesday.
