Niederwalluf

The mornings trip down the Rhine was amazing, the view from our room was beyond words. Jen went up to the top deck to the walking track and stayed in bed as I had a bad night with my Colitis. I got up around 9.30 and had a later breakfast and then met Jen on the top deck to watch the world go by. We arrived at Rudesheim at 12.30, disembarked at 1.00 to star our tour. Jen & I both did the walk through the vineyards. Well no one told us it was at the top of a massive hill and there was a monument at the top. The walk nearly killed me but we made it to a restaurant at the top to have a glass Reisling. I was so hot I could even drink the wine. We the walked up to the monument and then up further to the cable cars, which they call gondolas for the trip down. There was Christmas shop at the bottom so we did a bit of shopping but not too much as it was so expensive. We then walked back to boat to leave again at 4.00.Read more
