A little more Habsburg
Friday, 18 March 2016
Drunken Finns, Helpful Hungarians, an Air B n B caught in a Soviet era time warp, and a suspicious ‘technical’ failure in the Ruin bars of Budapest. A snapshot of my first day in This fine capital.
A comprehensive and hopefully entertaining update to come later, but for now I venture out into the streets of Buda and a stroll down the Danube, which I am yet to set my eyes upon.
A white lie, I discovered the Danube when visiting Novi Sad, Serbia, but there the river was littered with the bombed out corpses of bridges, curtesy of NATO. Today I m hoping for a slightly more regal feel to my Danube experience, hopefully with a bridge or two intact.
