Viking River Cruises Longship "Viking Aegir", Budapest, Hungary. I had
arrived the evening before on the "Viking Idi", parked immediately
behind it.

That's a neat looking one Clayton, must be built for sailing under some
of the bridges along the way?

Definitely. Along the Main River, the bridges are so low, the top deck
is off limits, due to clearance restrictions. The ship's Bridge, sits
on a hydraulic scissors,lift, and must be completely lowered to fit
under. Controls are along the side for operation, and the ship can also
be controlled from the bridge, while lowered, using radar.
