Kiel Germany ...really just docked here Strasbourg France is across the bridge and we spent all morning over there. Our tour guide spent 3 years at university before she could get this job...think she majored in history. Anyways she knew her stuff...won't remember most of what the guides told us, but some will stick.
Really warm today, had not planned on it being this warm...23~25..... I have a lot of sweaters and jackets but no sandals or shorts. Happy it is warm and not raining.
I expected the area to be hilly, but it is quiet flat....another movie myth ...Sound of Music got it wrong!!!!!
Walked our feet off again saw another beautiful cathedral ,and many period homes, small streets and cobble stone roads and walkways. No one wears narrow high heels... but everyone wears boots... seen some of the most beautiful boots over here, and everyone wears scarfs . Hali you would make a mint with your scarfs....you could set up shop with no problem.:-) :-)
If you have been wondering the food on board has been very good, expect my blood levels to be up..... Known my weight is:(:(
But since we were in France and out on our walk...we had real French onion soup with local white wine.. In front of the cathedral in an open air cafe ...excellent :-) :-) :-)
The rest of the day is a kick back..goof off with a cooking class mid afternoon. Plan on sitting up on the top deck tonight if the sky is clear and do a little star watching. Could see the Big Dipper last night but there is so much light from the cities it is hard to see a lot....better view at home.....but the weather is great here could not ask for anything better.
