Life on the ship

Uncategorized 1 Minute

We board the Viking River ship, The Astrild. Astrild means goddess of love in Norse mythology. The ship was built specifically for the Elbe River, which is extremely shallow. It was built in 2015, is 361 feet long, and can carry 98 passengers and has a crew of 33. It has a draft of only 3 feet!

Our chef, we were well fed
Dinners were good with some great conversation
View from the top deck
Umbrellas and rain coats came in handy
Safety drill always a must
Good wine and even some American bourbon!
Our captain and crew welcomed us on board
