Our day started by being bused into the city because we couldn’t dock in town. Our tour guide, a forty-something, somewhat shaggy appearing English Lit professor type with wavy shoulder length brown hair and a worn leather messenger bag met our group outside the new symphonic hall — a modern glassy building that stands in contrast to the medieval baroque, Gothic, and Romanesque architecture of old.
As you can see from the photos, it is quite a juxtaposition of structures — especially when one can stand outside the symphony hall and look toward the centuries-old buildings along the river.
