2016 River Cruise - Day 6

A morning tour of Passau, then cruising down to the Danube to Regensburg...


Daily program, leaving lovely Austria and entering Germany (lower Bavaria).  Note temperature forecast, not bad for late September in Europe...

Wasserstand = water level.  Marker on the side of the Rathausturm in Passau documenting high water levels over the centuries.  Note more recent (2002 and 2013) marks.

Apse inside St. Stephen's Cathedral.  Our Tauck tour guide (in pseudo-Bavarian dress) in the foreground

The organ in St. Stephen's Cathedral, said to be the largest catholic church organ in Europe...


A view of some of the ornate dome painting and the organ in St. Stephen's Cathedral, the organ is really big!


 

Dinner in the casual dining area in the aft section of the MS Esprit.  Dick, Angela, Leslie, myself, Rod, and Annie.  Dick is a retired investment banker from New York.  Leslie is his daughter, she lives in Montana...
