Day 7--Black Forest

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.
