The Allies secret weapon

Born two days before D Day, we celebrated Marie's nnth birthday and what fun we had and with what fantastic company!
First of all dinner in the exclusive Erlebnis Restaurant with Catalin and his superb team along with some great friends we have made on this trip. What a night, birthday cake and all.
Well two cakes, if you count the marvellous towel creation on Marie's bed,
more of towel creations in later blog, just can't have you miss the photos of those special little items.
Then off we went with our trusty penguin torch (thanks May) to find the wine tasting that was somewhere in Durnstein, ably guided by Michelle and her map given to her by Peter, our tour manager {well we were having too much fun to leave the dining room)(we did find it AND the way back to the boat in time for departure to...........VIENNA, whooo hooo!)
We really had a fun night, best birthday!! thanks to everyone!!
This last composition is of a few more moments during dinner, including an impromptu dance by Catalin and Michelle.

As MBBIM would say FANTASTIC.

    Well, happy birthday Marie. What a wonderful place to have a birthday. We had a look at some photos of the town on the web - very picturesque. The abbey looks interesting. Luv/ybbim

    1. Yes it is a beautiful little town, very steep,you can see why it was originally settled as very easy to defend. The church is a lovely blue colour.

    Great to hear from you again, too long between blogs! Keep it coming it all looks so inviting, might have to rethink travel plans!!! I love the towel creations, might have to give it a go. Looking forward to seeing all the photos, even the blurry one's at the end of an evening. Sue

    1. Problem was that one medieval city merged into the next :)

  4. Wow! What a birthday! Loved the cakes, real and towel - hope you have taken lessons Lib, we expect to see a demo :) For someone not sure about cruising you seem to have taken to it like a duck to water! Vienna should be great - Strauss in the park maybe?
