Last Night In Hungary

A long drive, some 250 km, lies behind us today, as we enjoy our last night in Hungary. Nine nights in four towns have given us a good impression of the place, and we look forward to returning another time, to take in Lake Balaton and the south of the country.

We drove from Szentendre to Sopron today, placing us a stone's throw from the Austrian border. Sopron's a lovely town with an unspoilt mediaeval layout. The huge number of dentists and opticians, beckoning to Austrians to cross the border for cheaper healthcare, do not detract from the town's charm.

Tomorrow, we drive to Bratislava, the Slovak capital.
