2019 Switzerland’s, Grindelwald & Jungfraujoch

Arrived at our hotel from our balcony looking up at the Eiger Mountain.
Again from our balcony looking down the valley.
Outside the railway station.
Waiting for the train to Jungfraujoch. We had a couple of nice meals in the railway hotel shown just over Linda’s left shoulder.

2018 Tallin

Probably my favourite stop on the whole cruise.

Walking around the town was delightful.
When thinking what to order we asked the waitress what was on the bread, she in a strong voice said Fat. So we asked for two serves of olives. She asked, Two serves? We said yes. So she brought us two jars of olives. Missed communications is a wonderful experience.
