Tall buildings of Frankfurt appear on the horizon |
Approaching a low bridge which our navigation room will duck under. |
Frankfurt: wide river, tall buildings |
More of the big city |
Elegant single-cable bridge |
Nice perspective of our Swiss Sapphire docked for gas. |

All gassed up, we continued on the Rhine to Rudesheim, where we hopped on this train to an interesting wine cave. |

Mary gets the scoop about museum we are about to enter. |
Inside the museum are miriad mechanical music makers, three shown here; first this keyboard-driven one-man band. |
Bells and drums? |
I can't imagine the sound of a mechanical string sextet. |
Our happy group -- you can see my plate. |
Our server sat me temporarily for a picture. |
