So Long Zwaan

So long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, goodbye!

Today we had our last breakfast on the Zwaan, packed up our bags and were out of our rooms by 9:00 so they could start preparing for the next group to arrive. We said our goodbyes to our new Canadian friends and the crew and set out to explore Mettlach a little more.

The Swan defending her eggs. The boat’s name is Swan in Dutch. This hangs over the stairs down to the kitchen and bar.
