Bratislava,the exciting part

same day, July th 25th



bad mooring in Bratislava

When ready to sleep (some ice-cream later) we slowly stroll down to the pontoon. When turning round the corner to the pontoon we do not see Ellide Embla, only a huge cruising ship. First thought is that we went to the wrong pontoon, but a second later I realize it is the correct one. How can the cruising ship be so close when Ellide Embla is there? I rush down and see that the cruising ship is actually 5-6m from the pontoon giving some space for Ellide Embla while 3 guys try to move her (to where???). I jump onboard and start the engine. During that time Olga and the kids come down and the guys help them on board. Full speed ahead while Olga take care of the lines with help from the guys. We shout a “thank you” to them and now hope that no one will call.
