Danube River Cruise - Day 5 - Sunday, October 28, 2018 - Prague, Czech Republic to Straubing, Germany

Today is basically a travel day. We had breakfast at the hotel and packed up our suitcases and left them in the hall. Our original plan was to go out walking until we had to meet at 12:30 but it was really pouring and we decided it was better to be dry for the bus ride. We left at 1:00 for Straubing- a different point of embarkation. The low river levels necessitated that. We are still crossing our fingers that we will be able to cruise but it is somewhat doubtful. At least we’ll have tonight on the boat.

We arrived around 4:30 and then had our welcome and orientation in the lounge. There are 130 people on the boat from all over the US and Canada. At 7:00 we had a great dinner with barley soup, shrimp ceviche, potato and salmon, pork tenderloin and cheesecake or sorbet. It really was delicious. We skipped the entertainment as we have an early morning tomorrow. The good news is that with today’s rain it looks like we will be able to complete our cruise but they still said that could change.


Yes, that was snow on our way to Straubing
