"Unique discovery" made by the Captain late yesterday (Sunday) that the main river lock into Koblenz would be closed for yearly, routine maintenance for about a week starting later today. As a result, our stop in Berncastle (on the Moselle) -- scheduled for today -- had to be "scrubbed" and we are "rushing" north to Koblenz to avoid being stuck for about a week.
Difficult to understand how "we" didn't know about the closing in advance!!! Only thing we can do is to relax and chill onboard the cruise ship for the entire day today. Good news is there will be lots of sun shine with temps in the high 70's.
Yesterday, we visited Trier, Germany which has a significant number of Roman ruins to include a collesium and the Porta Nigro (main gate into the city of Trier. The enclosed pics are somewhat random, but reflect our visit.
Sorry about the detour. Hope it's a lovely jaunt.
