Danube Adventure – Retrospective

What are the main thoughts that stay with me at the end of the cruise? (None of the photographs here will be new. Just a recap.) A sense of amazement at this * * * * * living. A wonder that most of the building s we saw, even if they had a history that… Read More Danube Adventure – Retrospective

Danube Adventure – the food

Now I am not going to give you a blow by blow account of every meal we had, just a bit of a taster! Breakfast Breakfast was one of those large buffet affairs. There were juices and a variety of cereals and fruit and yogurt and even porridge. The normal butter and jams plus a… Read More Danube Adventure – the food

Danube Adventure – Budapest by day

As in many other places we were taken around the city by coach and really taking pictures from a moving coach is rarely successful. So most of the pictures I have for you were taken when we were dropped off by the Fisherman’s Bastion and Matthias church and left to our own devices for a… Read More Danube Adventure – Budapest by day

Danube Adventure – Vienna

By this time I was beginning to feel quite tired and my daughter and I opted to buy ourselves lunch during the day so as not to have to return to the ship. So I hope that my photographs are still worthy of inspection. Actually it is hard to give a representative view of any… Read More Danube Adventure – Vienna

Danube Adventure – Salzburg

I have wanted to go to Salzburg for a long time, and not because of ‘The Sound of Music’ which it seems is the reason lots of people go. Saltzburg is not on the Danube so the ship stopped at Linz and we took a coach to Saltzburg. I wasn’t especially happy with the photographs… Read More Danube Adventure – Salzburg

Danube Adventure – Melk Abbey

Melk Abbey was amazing and I took lots of photographs though when we were being taken on a guided tour it was fairly speedy and I would have liked more time. I’ve been aiming for twelve photographs of each location but I have had to stretch to fifteen here. Melk is very much a working… Read More Danube Adventure – Melk Abbey

Danube Adventure – Locks & Wacau valley

I am someone who tends to believe in saving the best to last so I am going to talk about the locks along the river Danube first as the photographs I took here were all taken in a hurry and just to give a memory. A lot of the time we went through the locks… Read More Danube Adventure – Locks & Wacau valley

Danube Adventure – Dürnstein

On Wednesday we awoke at Dürnstein for a day when we would visit Dürnstein and Melk and travel through the Wachau Valley. This post is just about our time in Dürnstein.Dürnstein is best know as the place where Richard the Lionheart (King of England at the time of the third crusade) was held captive by… Read More Danube Adventure – Dürnstein

Danube Adventure – Bratislava

The next day, Tuesday, we had sailed on to Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia. I noticed on the whole of my trip that in these big cities the buildings seemed very large, too large to easily photograph in total even with a fairly wide angle lens, so I found myself very often taking pictures of… Read More Danube Adventure – Bratislava

Danube Adventure – Esztergom

Writing these posts is a great way of attaching my memories of the correct places. On Monday morning we awoke in Esztergom having sailed there over night. Still in Hungary, Esztergom was a lovely small city. The weather was very warm and sunny, almost too sunny for photographs and the sun was not always in… Read More Danube Adventure – Esztergom

Danube Adventure – the ship

I thought that before I take you to all the places we visited that I would share a few photographs of the ‘Lord Byron’. I didn’t make a planned set, just a few here and there. However the ones I have chosen come to a dozen and I could have added more but felt this… Read More Danube Adventure – the ship

Danube Adventure – Budapest at night

Another photography post! Well I did say I would continue the tale of my Danube cruise on Thursdays. The same evening we arrived on board the ship, we sailed out of Budapest. Up on deck we watched the beautiful sight of Budapest at night. Deciding on the right camera settings was tricky and I tried… Read More Danube Adventure – Budapest at night

Danube Adventure – Leaving and Arriving

If some of you are wondering why I have been a bit quieter lately it is because I have been away on a cruise along the Danube. We did have slightly unreliable internet access but of course reading blogs and commenting wasn’t as high priority as normal. With so many places to visit and things… Read More Danube Adventure – Leaving and Arriving

Made another Celtic cross bookmark. #cross #celticcross #celticcrossbookmark #bookmark #scripture #bible
Made this out of Aran/worsted weight cotton as it is about the same size as my regular Celtic coaster and people in the US seem to use that weight a lot. Wondering whether to add it to the pattern for the Celtic Coasters. #celtic #celticcoasters #celticcoaster #aranweightyarn #worstedyarn #cottonyarn #crochetpattern
