Kalocsa, Hungary

We docked at Kalocsa.  Our morning tour included a beautiful organ concert in a Catholic church.  For the encore, the organist played, "Battle Hymn of the Republic."  Then we went to a restaurant where you could either decorate eggs (I bought two), do embroidery, or make paprika bread (eating it was easier).  This area is a great Paprika area and we saw it sold (sweet or sharp), grown, burlap bags of it, sold in jars, foil or tubes.  Walked back to the ship --it was sprinkling--and had lunch.  Took the optional tour to a Hungarian Puszta (horse farm) and attended a horse show.  The show ring was very muddy.  Chuck, being older and wiser, said,"We are not sitting in the front row."  The show consisted of teams of three pulling a wagon, a team of four beautifully matched horses pulling a cart, etc.  The star of the show was a rider standing on two horses, driving eight horses.  The horses were white Arabians. Then we toured the barn and rode in a horse drawn wagon.  P.S. the people in the front row were astonished with their mud-splattered clothes!  It rained heavily as we struggled down the steep ramp to the ship. Ramp was steep because the river looks to be about 10 feet low here.
Tonight's dinner was the Farewell Dinner because tomorrow night is too complicated.  Entree choices  were beef tenderloin or Rock Lobster.  Baked Alaska for dessert.
I blogged tonight becauuse our schedule is getting more unpredictable as the cruise comes to a end.  Will write when I can.
