Just a quick note to catch up.  We are currently in Nuremberg, awaiting yet another bus to take us to Bamberg.  We went from Vienna to Passau.  They have done an amazing job of cleaning up the town after the flood. More pictures will follow.  We have  


Flood levels - look for the handwritten level at the top of the dark patch.

From Passau, we drove from Passau to Bad Griesbach, where we were put up at a golf resort.  We skipped the trip to Regensberg, since it was 2 hours each way to the town for a 1.5 hour tour.  Instead, we took a lovely walking trail into the town of Bad Griesbach.  Where our trail met the road through town, we met a parade.  They were celebrating 150 years of fire prevention, and every town's volunteer fire department for miles around, possibly from throughout Germany, was represented. 

  Well, more later.  Time to catch the bus...
