While not my usual pick for a vacation, I recently returned from a Viking River Cruise from Passau, Germany to Budapest, Hungary. But, as you know, I can’t turn down an adventure. So, off we went.

First, I was expecting a much older crowd. While I did lower the demographic a little, it wasn’t as bad as I thought. The benefit was that the lounge was completely empty by 8 PM so everyone could go watch their Wheel of Fortune and go to bed.
