I can’t intend of whatever argue why not?

leelaurino@earthlink.net

Dreaming of a European river cruise, who doesn’t get-go intend of the Danube river?  And on the  Danube Delights (DD) itinerary, this water highway passes towns together with cities older than whatever inwards the USA.   For inspiration I am listening to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CTYymbbEL4&feature=kp, The Blue Danube Waltz yesteryear Stauress.     

An chance to canvas on the rivers of Europe has been my dream for years.   Sailing on all the routes offered would still

 nly scratch the surface of this iconic purpose of ‘old world’ Europe.       

Many of the stops will endure novel to me, but I go without a listing of must view monument, statues, industrial plant of fine art together with no preconceptions. 

This run a jeopardy volition non endure what did I see but instead, what novel experiences together with people volition rest inwards my retentiveness later this adventure.

Bratislava

Each town volition endure a surprise that I tin discover, much similar a Russian matryoshka doll.  I promise to sense for the curt fourth dimension I am ashore, closed to purpose of life inwards the towns together with cities nosotros visit.    I go weblog total fourth dimension together with every trip is an adventure of novel people, novel places together with lots of history to endure written close every black dorsum on the ship.

I ever go alongside a theme and My Emerald Waterways topic for this run a jeopardy is: 

                                                                                                     Cake, Castles, together with Crafts

·  At each halt I promise to see the oldest bakery to sample the best they accept to offer.      Hard go but I am create for the challenge.  Cities together with regions all accept their signature sweets.   And everyone is happy when they are eating cake!    A few of the establishments together with treats that facial expression me:

Melk Abby restaurant’s Koloman cake

Ruszurm Pastry Shop inwards Budapest, 173 years quondam together with withal makes the Ruszwurm cream filled pastry!

Kaffe Mayer inwards Bratislava (1878) an online postal service told me to stimulate Krenovy rez

                                                                                                                sacher torte from the Hotel Sacher inwards Vienna  

                         

In Nuremberg a search of Lebkuchen (gingerbread) whose root dates dorsum to the 1400’s…

I am gaining weight simply researching bakeries for the other stops!    So it is a relief to know in that location are walking tours planned that shall aid me ship away those extra calories.   

DD offers to a greater extent than walking tours that allow travelers to view life on the same degree equally the locals    I don’t intend y'all view a province or a town from a charabanc or educate window the same agency equally when y'all walk the street, odor the fresh staff of life baking, chat alongside a local sitting on a bench inwards the Sun or sentry the children playing inwards the park. 

Vienna Austria

·         Castles:  no postulate to project design or search for these since CPDD has included many on the daily tours together with others shall endure slowly to find, too equally abbeys together with palaces.   Any opportunity to see closed to of the 900+ UNESCO World Heritage sites is an added bonus together with during this 8 24-hour interval run a jeopardy in that location are several to endure explored..

Market inwards Budapest

·         Crafts:   H5N1 cleaver term to disguise shopping.  Local markets inwards each urban pith together with small-scale shops owned yesteryear locals afford an slowly introduction to closed to of the people who alive inwards each location.    Searching for manus crafted items to recall an incredible trip or a walk through the daily nutrient marketplace is an fantabulous agency to run across together with chat together with acquire close life inwards that town.    Often y'all simply postulate to nation jo napot, guten morgen, pozdravi or just hello.

·         If I go during Ball Week, I dream of tending 1 of the many Waltz Balls inwards Vienna.    Dancing the Viennese waltz inwards Vienna, what tin top that?         I tin hear the music now.

Luxury handling for 8 days, cake at every town, shopping together with the best castles together with palaces……what else could I inquire for?     The luxury of get-go shape treatment, meals prepared, amusement daily together with fifty-fifty informative lectures shall acquire inwards hard to enterprise OFF the ship!

If y'all view me lingering over a cappuccino on the deck 1 morning, yell out together with encourage me to ‘get out there!’    

See y'all aboard
