| Itinerary |
On to the boat cruisin' down the Rhône. We registered, went to Cabin 2
and found our luggage already in the room. Showered up, then spent
some time on deck, then had dinner (our first on the boat). Al &
Sylvia have reserved a group of tables for us, so we can change who we
dine with if we choose. It makes it nice to have the opportunity to sit
with different folks in the group, rather than having the same seats all
the time. Our dinner companions were Paul & Claudia Eccles and Steve
& Barbara South. We drank both an '83 and an '88 Chambertin with
dinner. Both were $70 and excellent, although the '88 had more fruit and
was liked better by most of us (Steve is an "old wine" kind of
guy).
Dinner: 'becca ended up leaving prior to dessert due to a coughing spell. She's really having a rough time. I took her a cappuccino and dessert, but she didn't have much of either. Steve volunteered to look at her again tomorrow. I finished the night off with a Remy VSOP.
