Day 19 Nuremberg - Bamberg & cruising

Had a talk today about the Main-Danube-Rhine canal hard to believe it is only 4metres deep...the ship below the water line is 1.3m...lots of other technicalities as well...today after docking we went on a guided tour of Bamburg, it is a quaint gem of a city with murals on the walls and we spent most of our time in the older part of the city visiting The Cathedral, the New Residence with its rose garden, the old Court, Old Town Hall in the middle of the river, and a medieval row of houses by the river called Little Venice...Bamberg is endowed with one of Europes largest fully intact old town centres. Based on early medieval foundations the city is World Heritage Listed. After the walk some free time then black to the ship where we sailed almost immediately out of the canal and into Main River.. Not on the Rhine just yet...plenty of locks but the drop is getting smaller as we head to the Rhine..
