It was written(on some travel brochure that we kinda copied their itenary):
Today, you journey into the heart of the Wachau Valley, aUNESCO World Heritage site known for its terraced vineyardsand orchards. Pedal through charming Austrian villages likeSpitz, Weißenkirchen, and Dürnstein, with cobbled alleys and
flower-covered balconies. Pass medieval relics, including the12th-century Dürnstein Castle ruin, and enjoy the local scenery ofgrapevines, apricot, and apple trees. Sample the region’s famousapricot brandy at the many wine and spirit shops.
A visit to the prestigious Weingut Lagler winery awaits you, a trueWachau experience. The day concludes in the 1,000-year-old cityof Krems, twin city to Passau, where the journey began. In the evening, walk through the Steiner Tor gate to the old town, a step back into a midivil village.

so I think I won`t.
It wasn`t the image I was trying to reflect here.
That would be more appropriate for a post about the
Consta Concordia.
For that I would have to add some prostitutes,
which might be in Wilcox`s song because I didn't mention the gambling and the whoring and the ......
(he`s Canadian, my goodness, such.....)
