Highland Center, in Southeast Iowa | Yes, a river cruise. It was great to only have to unpack once and still see all the sights. Rooms were small on the ship, but we didn't spend much time in the room anyway, so it didn't matter. We started in Amsterdam, were supposed to go to Basel, Switzerland, but the river was so high at the upper end that we couldn't clear the last bridge, so we disembarked in Breisach Germany and bussed on to Basel to catch the flight home. It was an 8 day tour and we were in Netherlands, Germany, France. Though Basel is in Switzerland, the airport is actually in France. |
