8 août 2019, Hongrie ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C
In 1 week from today I will be on my way to Budapest to begin a Viking River Cruise on the Romantic Danube! Between now and next Thursday, there is a lot to get done. And as I'm house / Gretta sitting this week I am not home to get started. But I can make lists: laundry, what to take?, how many shoes?, bike clothes (yes, biking excursions are available on the trp), dress? Na- it will just hang in the closet! Skorts? Yes, dressy but comfortable. Slacks, capris, shorts, tops, etc...
10 days worth of vitamins and other pills, 3 oz liquids. in a ziploc bag of course, + this, + that...
Did I exchange USD for EUROS? yes, but Hungry doesn't use the Euros - I have some currency for there.
Documents: Avanti for flights, transfer and pre-night in Budapest. Viking docs for cruise. I'll be meeting 9 other AAA Carolinas agents and our BDM, Barry Johnston either on Friday or Saturday on board.
Last but not least, Jerry will be joining me. He's seen a lot of Europe in his young life and he never complains!
Looking forward to seeing new places, new experiences, learning how wonderful Viking is, and sharing these with friends, clients, and family.
Follow along!En savoir plus

Sometimes getting there is half the fun, sometimes not... this wasn't too bad: great 'parking spot' where the shuttle picks you up right at your car, flight was only 30 minutes delayed from CLT, plenty of time in Munich. Seated row 18D, aisle but right behind a couple and their 18 month son which dad decided to recline all night... didn't get much sleep. Grabbed a cafe and sandwich in MUC, quick change of clothes and I'm ready to go. Budapest here I come!!En savoir plus

Self guided walking tour, starting from our hotel with a short walk over the Szechenyi Lanchid ~ one of the bridges over the Danube that connects Buda to Pest. Can't believe all we saw in 5 hours, then we had a nice dinner, river side. A number of Viking ships ready to cruise if water levels are good. We embark tomorrow but stay in port part of Sunday. It was great to reconnect with 3 other AAA Carolinas agents. We will meet up with the others, if not before, at the dock.
Having issues with adding photos, I may try to upload the in my Facebook link.En savoir plus

Budapest day 2
17 août 2019, Hongrie ⋅ ☁️ 26 °C
Full day in Budapest to walk, see, eat, drink, and meet friends; new & old. Beautiful weather and water levels high enough to allow us to set sail up the Danube tomorrow.
This morning I took a leisurely walk and lite rail tour of Buda, then we walked across the bridge (toting our luggage from the Carlton hotel) to the Pest side and boarded the Viking Egil. Had a fabulous lunch on the Aquavit Terrace, then a wine and cheese pairing with Stephanie, Becky, Vicki, Barry Johnston and... we kept adding chairs as new friends joined us.
After, we took off walking again because you know what's coming... happy hour followed by a fabulous dinner. Night caps on the upper deck to see this beautiful city. Back to our cabin as Stephanie and I settle in and unpack. Early to bed because tomorrow the adventures start at 8a.En savoir plus

Goodbye Budapest
18 août 2019, Hongrie ⋅ ⛅ 25 °C
Beautiful morning and last glimpse at Budapest. City tour through Pest side, then cross the Danube and head up to the castle area of Buda. Motorcoach drops us near St. Stephen's, unfortunately was not able to go in as Mass had already started, but it was impressive from the outside. The views from here were amazing. As we took the motorcoach tour, the Viking Elbe heads up river and we reboard. Now it's lunch and an afternoon of views, cocktails, naps and more cocktails! By the morning we should be in Vienna.
More later.En savoir plus

The great thing about a river cruise is that it is your floating hotel and all your meals are available for you, but if you are in a city with so much to offer, spend the time exploring and eat with locals. We had a great lunch at Figlmuller, excellent wienerschnitzel and even better friends to share it with.
So the morning city tour took us around Vienna and to St. Stephen's a beautiful Catholic church that has great history and beautiful spires you can take an elevator to the top, ok, for a cost.
We wandered around and ended up at Figlmuller for lunch. Subway back to the ship for 15 minutes and back on the subway to the open market tour with our executive chef. Looking at all the fabulous local produce he purchases for our excellent meals. Toured around with Barry, Aly and Kristina then headed back to the ship via the subway again. Ready for a shower and nap... ok a drink too!!! Rested up on the sun desk till I needed a refill and am now in the lounge pre dinner music and cocktails. Others are back from their afternoon adventure of ' paddling through the wetlands' . Looking forward to hearing their stories.
More later.En savoir plus

Who says there is no entertainment on River Cruises.... Viking has a piano player who invites guests to join him... or did the guest just want to sing with him?!?! After a wonderful dinner Kris began playing and Daarone joined in vocal. Great fun.En savoir plus

By the time I got to bed I was so tired and my photos were on my phone and this app is on my tablet... anyway here's a fun recap of Tuesday night's fun. We had a lovely cocktail hour with Viking past guests who shared their past adventures and what's next! Great dinner on the Aquavit Terrace then drinks and entertainment! Slept great, good thing, Wednesday was packed full.En savoir plus

Morning in Krems, Austria
20 août 2019, Autriche ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C
Just around breakfast time we docked in Krems. Many took the morning excursion to Gottweig Abbey. I joined the bike excursion along the river and into Durmstein. Riding alongside vineyards, we stopped to take in the view of the Abbey. After some time to shop and taste the Apricot liqueur, we head back to our ship. Lunch on the Aquavit Terrace and cruising day through the Wachua Valley. Beautiful day for sailing, relaxing, and Apple Strudel demonstration. Finished product was excellent.En savoir plus
