Aboard the Yacht

The morning of our last day on the continent included a luncheon and some time for souvenir shopping. While we had found some souvenirs for the grandchildren in Denmark and Sweden, we were looking for some Germany items as well. We were told we would have an hour after lunch, which was about 45 minutes more than we had spent on the quest for the perfect toy.

Meanwhile, we were dropped off at a wonderful restaurant aboard a yacht now tied to the dock permanently. Thuringer-style bratwurst (I did not know there was such a thing) and cold beer were wonderful. The search for souvenirs was not so wonderful. Traipsing over seven blocks of shops filled with postcards and not much more, we did finally find a small shop with some trinkets and got back to the bus in time.

My so-long, not good-bye, to the continent in the next post.
