Welcome to Passau

We docked in Passau for the day, but immediately left for bus ride down to Salzburg, Austria, for the whole day. When we got back it was time for the ship to leave so we didn’t get to spend anytime in the city.  I don’t have any pictures but I do have a video of us pulling out and riding along the city’s edge and will give you at least a bit of an idea what it’s like.
