Regensberg and biking along the Danube

Slept in a little this morning but the early risers were up for pastries at 6:30-7:30.  Breakfast was at 7:30-9:30 so plenty of time to enjoy the morning before going off to our tour at 10A.  What is nice about the tours is that you could either choose the Gentle, active or regular walkers tours so never any rushing.  You really enjoyed the tours and the guides were fantastic.  We usually didn't have more than 20 people on any of our tours. 
One thing you don't want to miss in Regensberg is the famous sausage factory.  We went by at the beginning of the tour and they were beginning to cook all of the sausages and then came back later.
Regensberg has little narrow passageways and quaint squares.  We enjoyed walking thru the town and even came across a wedding that was going on with all the music.  Unfortunately the Old Stone Bridge (which I remember from my last trip) was being refurbished so missed seeing that.

Back to the ship for a late lunch but not very hungry.  Many of the guests were leaving for the

Weltenburg Danube Gorge which was an optional tour in the afternoon by bus, boat and some walking. However, instead of the Danube Gorge a few of the group decided to try out the bikes onboard.  They were very kind to get the bikes down from up on top and 8 of us headed out along the Danube until we ended up in a small little village. 

 

Biking was so much fun and we enjoyed eating on the Danube River.

 

Back to the ship after a couple of hours in time to enjoy the coffee and cakes in the lounge with music. Also for the port talk on what is going to happen tomorrow.

 

 

 

 A quick shower and then ready for dinner at 7P and we sail for Passau at 7:45P.  The Spitzweg Quartett was very good tonight and a special treat entertaining in the lounge.  Off to bed unless you wanted the late night snacks in the Lounge.
