Travel Blogs from Passau
Passau, Germany, city of three rivers.
Passau lies at the confluence of the Inn, Danube, and Ilz rivers and the city is on a peninsula jutting out into the rivers. Last major city on the Danube bordering Austria. Important medieval center for the salt trade (soldiers were paid in salt, hence the term salary came from). We toured the old town area which has pretty much the same buildings as the previous medieval towns--town hall, small cobble stoned alleyways, ...
And on the 6th day we rested
Quiet day today, as we decided to stay on board not do the 2 optional day tours. Two thirds of the passengers left at Linz on coaches to either Salzburg or Cesky Krumlov and will meet us in Passau. We have enjoyed a late breakfast and the optional world championship Bingo game. Came away with a free drink from the bar. Weather wasn't so kind this morning, so mostly stayed inside except for Peter's little excursions to the Wheelhouse to get the best view ...

We climbed into the van and instead spent three ...
30 Miles And Still Able To Walk
Finally a good eight hour night's sleep. I guess that's what 17 miles of biking and an hour walking tour around the Castle will do. Oh, don't let me forget the half liter of Pilsner beer. Before we start out the day, I have to mention the European bathrooms. The toilets are higher off the ground, and the bathtubs are close to 2 1/2 feet high to climb in and out of. I have no idea how the elderly manage it. I would have to assume that they have steps to help them in and out of ...
Austria, Czech Republic and Germany in One day
... of the night to reach Linz but I did not get to see very much of the town because we were whisked away to the Czech Republic town of Cesky Krumlov at 8:00am for a whole day tour. We had a lovey drive through the Austrian countryside before crossing the border into the once Iron Curtin zone before heading into the Czech Republic. Krumlov is a UNESCO world Heritage site with Baroque and Gothic architecture and has been ...
