Flag of Slovakia  , Bratislava,
Wednesday, June 11, 2008

Onwards we sailed to Bratislava where we moored for the rest of the
day.  Took off on another walking tour through the old town, (we need
these tours to exercise off the glorious food).  Very charming, and
again very old, buildings dating back to the 1st half of the 14th
Century.  A tower named after Michael too. Gary had to climb it twice,
once up most of the way then told had to pay, did not have any local
currency, so back down, bottle of coke later to get some change and
back up the tower.  They have relics here dating back 2000 millennium! 

 
Thank goodness for the golden arches, only place to find a
toilet St. Michaels' Tower
St. Michaels' Tower
 .  I was very spoilt today; Gary surprised me with 3 beautiful
music boxes.
 
Tonight another evening of entertainment. 
Five gorgeous girls similar to the group Bond, played violin, piano and
flute.  They performed many popular compositions from Andrew Lloyd
Webber, Frank Sinatra, Porgy and Bess to name a few.
 
We are about to set sail again for Vienna. Doesn't that sound romantic?

I can feel the ship starting to move off, another night of cruising
ahead.  Bruce and Gerry you would love this, we are having different
wines every night along with the local food specialty, they serve the
wine of the region, red and white. Just lovely.
