In The Interim – The End of Cycling

Budapest – the city of lights

And then there are all the soldiers from Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory looking for work

A visit to the ‘House of Terror’. Used by both the Nazis and the communist regimes as a place for interrogation and confinement. Now turned into a museum.

Meeting with Dave and Leslie for an evening out in Budapest

Headed south out of Budapest by train but then the train hit a car!

Yes, it is a bike path sign. Poor signage, poor surfacing and lots of road sharing challenged our route south to Baja, Hungary ( not Baja, Mexico)

Wild animals on the road

And incredible door handles

Breakfast out on the patio next to the swimming pool. Life is cheap and good in southern Hungary

Great soups

Lots of peppers to make paprika

But still a long way to the Black Sea

It is time to call an end to the trip. Baja is a great place to turn back and save the rest for later…

Goodbye bikes and

Good bye Sierd – what an amazing friend and a wonderful travelling companion. Thanks for making this trip a very special memory in so many ways.
