Today was very much a driving day. Left Zagreb at 9.30, two short pit stops and arrived at Budapest at 4.30. Pretty intensively farmed land to enjoy enroute.
The river boat is all you could imagine. Our cabin is .... cosy! No cat swinging allowed. Some of our number are in more up market cabins and others at the waterline with a port whole, so we're happy being middle of the road. You get what you pay for!
Unpacked, safety talk and general intro from executive staff and then a delicious first dinner. This was followed by a twilight cruise down the river under three bridges and back. About forty five minutes. A simply stunning way to begin this experience. The Hungarians know how to light their buildings.
Tomorrow we have a bus/walking tour of the city before an early afternoon departure for a 23 hour sail to Vienna. The big question - Can we be as lucky with the weather as we have been? Fingers crossed.
