The Romantic Rhine Beckons

Marksburg Castle, Rhine River

The Romantic Rhine with its castles, vineyards and medieval villages beckons.  But January isn’t the best time to visit.  The river cruises have ceased until spring, many hotels are closed for the season and the weather is dreary.  We sneaked a peak at some of the more famous sites on our drive south, just a tease of things to come.

We accomplished all of our missions: we have our India visas, plane tickets for the 16th and hotel reservations for Mumbai, and even booked a tour in Bhutan for April.  We are hanging out at Ramstein Air Base, our home-away-from-home.  We filled prescriptions for anti-malarial pills, did our laundry and are enjoying our last taste of American food for the next few months.  India, here we come.

But we’ll be back!
