We arrived in Breisach at 8 am. Our tour to the Black Forest departed in the afternoon, so we had time to explore the town of Breisach in the morning. Optional tours included a visit to Colmar and an eBike tour to the Black Forest.
Lunch onboard:
Alpine Salad--mesclun, honey-goat cheese toast, cherry tomatoes, Black Forest ham, red radish, walnut vinaigrette. This was quite a good salad.
Fish & Chips. It was okay--the batter was heavy. I substituted sweet potato fries.
Black Forest Ice Cream. The ice cream was not premium and the cherries were barely present--skip the calories.
At 6:30pm, we attended the Captain's Farewell Cocktail Party, where drinks and canapes were served.
Dinner followed at 7pm.
French Goat Cheese Souffle with Tomato Coulis. Not too exciting.
Tom Kha Gai--Thai chicken soup. This was watered down.
Veal & Mushroom Stew with Potato Rosti. The rosti was crisp but there wasn't much stew.
Seared King Dorado with Seafood Fregola Sarda, a Sardinian pasta.
Portobello Mushroom Risotto
Black Forest Cake
Key Lime Pie. This was tasty but such a small portion.
We stayed up to watch us go through another lock.
It was a tight squeeze.
Closing the gate behind.
Opening the gate in front once the water filled.
