we're back!

Larry and I have just returned from a wonderful cruise down the Danube River. Planned for almost a year, the trip was a much-needed vacation from the shop, but certainly not a veg-out, sit on your duff kind of trip. We were busy!! We started off in Prague for a few days and then went to Nuremberg, Germany to meet the boat. Sailing down the Danube, we visited Weltenburg, Regensburg (home town of Pope Benedict), Passau, Melk, Vienna and finally Budapest. It was a whirlwind of history lessons, spectacular churches and art, good food and fun new friends. We're tired but refreshed (sounds like an oxymoron, but it isn't) and still adjusting to the time change. It's back to work tomorrow and special thanks to Suzanne for holding the fort at the shop while we were gone.

Here we are in Prague with the castle behind us.
