Budapest

After a day of rough roads, paths and fast main roads crossed the Donau by ferry and picked up some reasonable dedicated cycle tracks.
Arrived Budapest about 1830hrs and headed for a hotel in an old river cruise boat....not bad at all at €50 each for two nights and a good breakfast thrown in.
I guess I must be city phobic as one day does it for me before the noise dirt and frenetic activity has me desperate to get out! Yes I know I'm a Philistine and everyone raves about Budapest and its got a few nice buildings but its not a pamtch on Vienna, especially for cyclists.
Tomorrow we head south for a couple of days before reaching Serbia and Croatia.
And now we have maps again!! The last lot ran out at Basel!

I can't believe you have cycled all that way without a map. For me it would be like cycling with no clothes on. I think the remainder of the trip will be the most interesting part. I am so envious!
