Thankfully the day warmed up from this morning’s lock and emergency drill adventures. We have been able to stand on the sundeck and enjoy the sights as well as doing some walking on the walking path.
I have no idea where we were for most of these pics. Somewhere in either Slovakia or Austria.




We decided to have lunch on the Aquavit Terrace. They only had place settings on the tables inside so we grabbed the last one of those. I was sad to not be at Milo’s table but Greg assured me that it would just make Milo miss me more. I’m going with the flow (mostly) for this trip so I’m hoping he’s right.

As we were sitting at our table we saw a castle or something coming up so I ran up to the sundeck to attempt a pic.





For lunch I had the broccoli soup (gave most of it to Carey), the ragu (gave only one tiny bite to Greg and cleaned the rest of my plate) and the banana split. Literally can’t tell you the last time I had a banana split and I’ve been missing out.



Greg made bad decisions and got the hot dog…whyyyyy? And for dessert he got the flan. I thought I was happy he got that thinking we could share until I decided that we could not because mine was way better and his was meh.


During lunch we were passing a cute little town so I ran up to try to get a pic. It didn’t turn out well because of the sun.



The pics weren’t my best but I did meet Marilyn (named after Marilyn Monroe) from South Carolina who was nice. She asked if I was traveling with my parents and I said my in-laws and she said “oh you are brave!”
For the record, while lunch service was good it was NOT Milo.
At 3pm there was an apple strudel making demonstration with apple strudel tasting after.

I was a big talker offering to make this for when Carey and Linda come to town next. After watching them make it and tasting it I’ve decided that I’m actually not interested in likely making it. I’d rather make apple cobbler.

After the banana split, the pasta and the apple strudel (that I ate even though it was just ok) I decided to hit the walking track. I was not alone.
We were also next to the Vienna airport so I was able to take lots of pics and videos to send to Brooks.






Milo came in to check on us in the lounge before dinner for the port talk. Turns out he was off for lunch so I actually didn’t miss him!
