Beautiful Bamberg. . . . . . .


On the road through beautiful countryside to Bamberg, Germany.




 Dear friends, Paula and Babs, taking an afternoon coffee break.




I loved Bamberg, known as one of Germany's most beautiful cities and listed 
as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. There are 2,000 buildings listed as historic 
monuments. . . . .its old city center is Europe's largest existing group of 
historic buildings. 



 . . . . . . . and at the end of our visit to Bamberg we were bussed to meet up 
with our replacement vessel - a sister ship the LIF - which was sailing south and, 
like us, couldn't get under the bridges with the high water! 
We were dropped off the buses in a field near the river and, after about an hour's 
wait, fortunately in warm late afternoon sunshine, the Viking Lif arrived and we 
were soon aboard and settled in our new cabins and ready for dinner as we sailed 
toward Wurzburg.
