Love it love it. You are having an awesome trip. Brings back such good memories for us too having done that trip. Such a shame Europe/UK suffering such heat and drought. One cannot control weather!!!!!

Hi Ernie and Ronnie, yes it's a lovely trip, we last did it in 2009! Even though we have not sailed the whole trip APT have been great taking us back to look at things on smaller boat! We are busing again today from Nurumberg to Passau... it is pretty hot and dry. Love and hugs to you both xxx
