WARNEMUNDE,  GERMANY
   This is a resort town where one can find vacationers from all across Germany coming to this seaport town go park their RV's, rent condos, hotels or camping spots.  This is a very clean looking town with many shops, cafes and souvineers.  
   We left our ship and walked along the dock and sidewalks into the city.  We soon found ourselves admiring a bakery showcase full of pastry goodies.   In spite of the giant Fly crawling around inside on top of the sugar coated/glazed pasteries, we partook and chased it down with stout coffee.  We also enjoyed their slow, but free, WIFI for a few minutes to catch up on email and dabble in social media.
   We walked around and browsed a few shops and surveyed a tall tower that one could climb for two Euros, while Nancy and Debby frantically searched for Euro change so they could use the pay-before-you-go toilet.
   We walked out onto a boardwalk towards the beach.  A man was busy sweeping the sand off the walkway,  a seemingly endless job.  Debby and Nancy opted to go out a ways and sit on the sand and look out across a sea of empty beach chairs at the Baltic.  I watched Nancy rearrange a place in the sand to comfortably fit her,  before I walked back out towards the shops to see an arrangement of flags.  Ron came with me.
   I must say that I am partial to the beaches in Oregon.  We have some of the most gorgeous stretches of beach that rivals none other.  There is no privatizing our beaches like in Europe.  So you will not find roped off areas of oceanfront sand filled with lounge chairs and umbrellas for rent.  Yea! for us!!
   The walk back along the canal was bustling with people!  Apparently many tourists on holiday slept in as long as possible.  Many of our cruise passengers took the 3-hour train ride to Berlin and spent 4 or 5 hours seeing the sights.   We chose to not do that because we spent 4 or 5 days there just 4 years ago.
   AND...on this day in WARNEMUNDE in 1964, nothing happened.   Same as today. 🤔
