Coach A - Castles and rivers!

So far Germany has been a great hit for the occupants of coach A. The armoury of the burg Eltz prompted many questions for our very knowledgeable guide as did the story of the ghostly Agnes.  The climb back up the hill was interestingly some of us over the age of 12 preferring to linger at the back to admire the view!  We followed with a trip to the lovely town of Cochem. I hope the parents and siblings enjoy their carefully chosen gifts.

Today we are cruising along the Rhine in trusty coach A admiring castles en route for a tour of the  music centre having just visited the statue of the Lorelei, the lovely siren which lured careless Rhine boatmen onto the rocks.

I think many parents will be expanding their knowledge of this part of Germany on our return whether they like it or not!
