Bacharach to Weißenthurm

45, total 1100
More of the same today but it's cold so we take a riverboat for 25km in the middle of the day. It's very relaxing floating by all the castles. The Rhine is very much a working river, with the barges carrying all sorts of imports and exports. The barge captain has his quarters at the stern, with his car perched on the back.
We've discovered that America's favourite travel writer is Rick Steves, so check out his books if you are planning a trip OS. We wondered why so many yanks were staying at last nights tiny village but yes, it was recommended and no they didn't know each other!
