On the rivers - 3

Still sailing the Danube River, we entered Germany and continued passing beautiful scenery and stopped at many interesting, mostly small, towns on the way.

A not-so impressive looking river cruise ship - basically a barge with a pusher tug attached.

As we got further into the cruise we encountered a number of bridges so low to the water that the upper deck was cleared, railings dropped and the wheelhouse lowered hydraulically so the ship could pass under.
