We arrived home from a trip on the Rhine River. I'll have additional posts about our trip but today, I'm sharing the beautiful swans we saw on our journey. We boarded our Viking Boat in Amsterdam and the next morning visited Kinderdijk.
Kinderdijk is a village in the providence of South Holland, Netherlands.
We experienced the dutch landscape, walked along the canals, and toured one of the 18th century windmills.
There were Mute Swans meandering in the canal waters. They are so beautiful and have such graceful movements.
Near the end of our trip on the Rhine, we saw Mute Swans again along the shore line as we approached our port at Strasbourg, Germany.

Near the end of our trip on the Rhine, we saw Mute Swans again along the shore line as we approached our port at Strasbourg, Germany.
They quickly swam out to greet us. They seemed very comfortable in approaching us. I wondered if this is what they always do when a tour boat arrives. They were stunning to watch as they came right up to our boat. I read that Mute Swans have tremendous appetites.
Such incredible creatures.
Such elegance and beauty.
The swans on the Rhine trip were so special and such a privilege to watch.
Join me another day for more about our trip to Paris, the Beaches of Normandy, and the Rhine River cruise - Judy.
