Sunday 26th Sailing

Sailing down (up) the river on a Sunday afternoon.
An easy day today. The scheduled land excursion this morning was the tour we did on Friday so we opted out and had a quiet morning on board.
We were having a light lunch when the ship set sail (is that the correct terminology?). You would hardly now the craft was moving it is so smooth and it moves along at a sedate pace, about 20 km per hour. A bit of rain along the way and it is quite cold, so there is no sitting out on the sun deck.
We are heading for Vienna where we will arrive at 1:30 pm tomorrow, sailing all night. We go through the first of the locks about 1:30 am, there are a total of  68 to go through in the 1811 Klms to Amsterdam.
We are having dinner in the "special" restaurant tonight, only caters for 25 people, so will see what that is like.
Not much to talk about today so will sign off.
Cheerio.
