Hofkirchen

We stayed here one night. 

This part of the river was very sallow,  just before 7:30pm, we noticed a Cruise ship slowing down and then just stop. At first we thought they must stop at this town and wondered why, there wasn't much to see here. Then when it started reversing then going forward, then repeating we understood what was happening. Not sure how long it was trying but it was gone when I got back from the showers.

In the morning a commercial ship also became grounded. He couldn't move at all, he radioed other ships in the area and they drove close to him in the hope to push him off. It took three commercial ship to do this before he could move again, must have been an hour.
