En Route To Prague, The Czech Republic (December 31, 2006) : Recapping events of our seven-day cruise from Budapest to Nuremberg, Cordula Deeken, hotel manager on AMAWATERWAYS Amadagio, proudly proclaimed that we were close to breaking an all-time record: 279 bottles of wine consumed, only 23 bottles shy of a record set last summer. The audience applauded during the cocktail reception on the final night of our cruise. We were sure to surpass the standing record, because dinner and a New Years Eve “practice” party still were ahead of us, and on Amadagio corks go popping with great frequency thanks to the ships policy of “wine and beer included: with dinner.
