July 7
Today the river ship made a side journey into the best kept secret part of southern Germany - Saxon Switzerland. Flatter farmland gave way to high cliffs of sandstone and forests. We sailed to a resort town of Bad Schandau to climb by bus up to the high Bastai Bridge for a hike among the sandstone cliffs overlooking the Elbe River. The most spectacular view on the journey! Then back to Dresden to finish up our individual explorations in the city. Tonight the farewell dinner, complete with baked Alaska.
