Yesterday was good-bye to Jimmy Doohan, and it was a sad day in Trekdom as we said farewell to Scotty. So much has been said in the last 24 hours. Jimmy was a guest on my first Trek cruise back in 93. He was a gracious man and he made it a point to sit down and talk to every fan at some point on that cruise. It was one of the stranger and speechless moments of my life to find Scotty sitting down and chatting with me. Too bad me and my friends were so starstruck that day. We couldn't carry a conversation but we still appreciated that he said hello.
Cruising the Danube
Life on the river often means spots where I can't get a good wifi connection so I'm a bit behind on blogging. I'm going to do this one fast and then get more detailed on the last two stops. I'm sailing with AMA Waterways and the ship is the AmaVerde as seen from the dock in Vidin. Usually I share a bigger cabin with a friend but for this trip we decided to splurge and get our own cabin. Here's my little home for the week. Most of Thursday was on the ship as we sailed from Bulgaria to Serbia. This lock is the second gate of the Iron Gates. Looking over at the dam on the river. View from my cabin. The water is just below the window. There are only three decks on this ship and I'm on Level 3.
